Dear Judy and Janet, I'm so sorry for the loss of your Mom. I will always cherish the summer visits to New York while growing up and the times spent with your family. I wish you and your families peace during this difficult time.
Jun 20.10 from George and Mary Jane Gibson:
So sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. George and I are praying for both Janet, Judy and their families. I certainly remember the fun times that we had "in the country" as I called it back then, the pool, the horse and the picnics at Letchworth Park. Your Mom made me feel special when I was a little girl visiting your family home.
Jun 19.10 from Phillip L. Dunn:
Dear Janet and Judy, Your Mom and I enjoyed our childhood years on the farm in Wyoming so very much and our school days in that one-room schoolhouse on the hill. I think one of the greatest memories I have is the time when your grandfather let us use an acre of land to plant 2000 pine and spruce seedlings that we obtained through the 4-H Club for fifty cents. We worked hard, but those seedlings are now a towering forest, a perfect monument to our love for each other. I shall miss her but am glad she is no longer in pain. God bless you both and your families who carry the genes of one great lady.

Dear Janet and Judy,
First of all, thank you, Janet, for letting me know that your Mom had passed away. I was glad that I was able to meet both of you when I was working at your Mom's house. I have many wonderful memories of Edwina. She was a special friend to me.
Unfortunately, I won't be able to come to the wake as my husband and I are going on a cruise to the Bahamas to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary.
Janet and Judy, please accept my deepest condolences. May God bless you and your families at this time.
Love,
Anne Katner
