To Steve Durand and your beautiful family
I am so sorry to read about the loss of your most lovely wife, Janet. Janet and I were good friends in grade school and high school. She was a giving and loving soul. Her life has been blessed with a large family and an abundance of friends. You were so very fortunate to have her as your wife and the mother of all your children. It is often said that we should live every day as though it is our last … and the passing of Janet is proof of this. My sincere condolences.
