All Condolences -

Please accept my condolences on the passing of your mom. I have great memories of growing up with all of you on Charlotte Ave. I was able to renew my acquaintance with your mom several years ago walking on the Pitt trail. She walked every day with her neighbor Sharon and Melissa, the dog. Your mom was in such good shape and walked along faster than most of us. She was such a lovely lady.
