Condolences

Sincere condolences on the loss of your mother - what an amazing lady! Growing up beside Marion and Jerome, for many years I would hear people speak of this woman Evelyn (Aunt Evelyn, Marion's sister) - even though I hadn't the pleasure of meeting her. My last memory of her was at Rosemary's birthday party last year - where she amazed me as she sparkled with wit and humour, full of smiles. She was a joy to be around. May your many wonderful memories bring you peace at this difficult time. I know she will live forever in your hearts.
