Dear Sheri, Mark, Chuck and family, Our deepest sympathies on the passing of your mother. She was a most beautiful, generous, thoughtful and caring woman! Our mother was very moved by their phone conversation not so long ago. Now, she's having a difficult time getting her head around the fact they'll not talk again; your mother had said she'd call again soon. Their's was over a 40 year relationship. Once again, our deepest sympathies. Our thoughts are with you. With love Maria, her children Morris and Irene and grandchildren, who still remember your mother fondly, Leah and Alanna - Posted by: maria strembicki () on: Mar 24, 2012

Our families and friendship go back a very long way and although we know Lee wasn't in good health for such a long time, hopefully, she didn't really suffer from her illness.

May her soul rest in peace......fondly, Carol and Ron Slater - Posted by: Carol and Ron Slater (old friends) on: Mar 17, 2012
