Jerry, Cindy, Barbara and Rick: I loved your mom with all my heart. She was one of a kind. I can still hear infectious laugh. She could always lift you up when you were down and had a sense of style like no one else I have ever known. She was a very special lady and will be truly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you. May you find peace in knowing she is with God laughing and free from pain and sickness. May God's never ending love surround during this time of sorrow. My love to all of you, Rhonda

My deepest sympathy to Winnie's husband and whole family. We had a common interest in B'Nai Brith since I too am a past president, only of ASA. She worked very hard and kept the chapter alive in the community for many years. She filled in for so many through the years.
She will be deeply missed.
