Dear Karen,
I was very sad to hear of the loss of your mother. I know how devoted you and your family were to her and how much she was loved by all of you. I wish I could reach out and give you a hug right now.
Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers at this time and always.

Dear Janet and Family:
We are very sorry for your loss. Your mother was a blessing to her entire family.
We moved next door to Peg and Jim on Whitelawn Avenue in January 1957, and established a lasting friendship with her family. We called the street “Pregnant Acres” at the time, because someone was always having a baby. Our children grew up together. Peg organized Easter celebrations with egg races and other events that our kids still recall. Her humor and enthusiasm for all things relating to families was irrepressible. As Jim is a wonderful physician, she was a wonderful mother and friend. We miss the memory of her as she was and hope that this little recollection will serve to heal the sorrow evoked by her later years and her passing. With love to you all. – June and Jack Robinson
