Dear Lori, Michael, Diane and Sue sorry to here about the death of your mother.   I have many memories of my father and your mother.  She was part of our lives for many years, she will be greatly missed.  I would not be where I am today if Maggie did not helped me through the civil service application process, she got me started in Jobs and Family Service.  All my prayers are with you, God bless.

Dear Lori and Family,
 
It is with a heavy heart that I send you my deepest condolences and prayers for your loss. 
Your mother, forever known to me as "Mrs. Frome", was such a part and fixture of my wonderful childhood. She will always fill my heart with warm and fond memories of growing up on Northgate and Dixon Avenue.  We truly had a great neighborhood with great families and parents.
I thank the Lord that we had the opportunity to visit that lovely afternoon last summer, and now have those fresh memories to add to all the others.
May God be with you in this time of need.
 
Love,
Diane Dixon

To My sweetheart, Sue, Mike, Diane,

I can't tell you how much I miss your Mom and love each and everyone of
you, especially my sweetheart.  I feel so lucky to have known your Mom and
the wonderful family she raised and nurtured throughout her life. I know
visiting her gravesite with Lori, that her body is still her, but her
spirit is in Heaven with our Lord, Jesus Christ.  I'm looking forward to
seeing her again someday and I know we'll have a great reunion.  God Bless
all of you.
