Dear Sharon and Rick,
I was so sorry to read of your mother&&single&&s passing in the London Free Press. You probably don&&single&&t remember me but I used to come and clean the house for your mom on saturdays when i was in highschool. I think Janet Drager had the job before me. Your mom was great to work for and a very generous person. I still have the brass christmas decoration she gave me one year and the glass brownie pan she gave Dennis and I when we got married. She was always baking something when I was there for some function she was going to. These are the things I remember. I hope they help. I was not able to attend the visitations or funeral but wanted you to know you were in my thoughts.

Dear Sharon and Rick,
I am so sorry to hear of Helen&&single&&s passing. I have so many wonderful memories not only in her role as your Mom, but also as a friend when we worked together at the postoffice. I loved her stong, independent personality. We had many a lively conversation on world news, history and politics. I am so sorry I can&&single&&t be there tomorrow. My thoughts and prayers will be with you.
