Clarke Family,
So sorry to hear of the death of your Mom today. She and my Mom, Peggy Hamilton, shared many hours talking about children and grandchildren over the years but particularly the years before my own Mother’s death three years ago. The sorority through the years gave them all such pleasure strength and long lasting and loyal companionship. My thoughts are with you in the days ahead. Sincerely,
Wendy Hamilton Nelson.

Dear Yvonne’s Family,
Sorry to hear the sad loss of your dear Mother. Louise Mc Lean phoned me & unfortunately told me the service was Friday morning & by the time I found out it was too late for me to get there.
Sorry for the mix-up.
Your Mum sure had a busy & interesting life & when I came & did her hair she always spoke so lovingly of you all & of course kept me up to date on all the Grandchildrens activities especially when it came to sports.
Thinking of you all.
Sincerely, Sally.
