We were very sorry to hear about your mother’s death. Thinking of you during this time of such mixed emotions.

Dear Ginny,
I are sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. As her devoted caregiver for such a long time you must have very mixed emotions.
Our mothers, the two Marys, were friends almost their entire lives so this is the end of an era, with no one left in their generation. (My own mother died this past spring.) I prefer to remember them in their heyday, going down a skihill!
My thoughts are with you.
Sincerely,
Joan
Dear Ginnie and Ian,
Thank you for your call. We were saddened to hear about the passing of Mary. I remember her so well and being very attractive. George and Mary were a very large part of my families life.
with affection,
Judy and Comer Coppie
Dear Ginnie and Ian

Affectionately,
Judy and Comer Coppie
Dear Ginnie and Ian,

I recall Mary and George Henderson at the home of Vic and Clarabel Wright. I am trying to locate the Wright’s daughter, Judy, who married Comer Coppie. Their names appear above in the condolences. She is my first cousin and this seems like the only way to find her.
