Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Susan, Wanted of offer my condolences on the loss of your mother. Having met your family a few times back in the high school days, I remember how much your family meant to you. Just wanted to say I am sorry for your loss.
It was a pleasure for us to know Barbara for many years. She was always kind and gracious to Dores and I. We are sorry not to be able to attend the service as Dores is not well and is under the care of Hospice.
Marc, Craig and Susan…Janey and I were so sorry to hear about your mother. She was a great person and I still have many great memories of her and your dad from our younger years. Please give your dad our condolences. I know from personal experience these are difficult times and we wish you the best. Regards, Tim and Janey Purcell
