Dear Ed, Judy and Family My deepest condolences for the loss of your beloved mother. I know how difficult it was to have Alzheimers disease steal her memories away over the years. The love and care with which you and your family cared for her is a testament to her enduring and lasting legacy. May she rest in peace. Sending you all my love.

My dearest cousins, Your mom was a very special lady and loved by everyone who knew her. May you all find peace and comfort in knowing that your grief is shared by us as well. I can still taste her delicious goulash and I will always treasure the wonderful memories that we shared. Your beloved mother will be sorely missed. I know that she is united with your dad and of course my parents. Can you imagine the reunion? May her memory always be with you and may G-d give you all strength during this most difficult time.

Dear Barb, Allan, Eddy & family. I was so saddened to hear of Freda’s passing. My sincere condolences to all of you! I am so glad I got to know Freda a little before the dementia set in. She was such a kind, sweet & loving person. She always spoke so fondly of all of you & was so very proud of you. I enjoyed all her stories of you as you were growing up & all of your many accomplishments. It was so good to witness her very fond love for all of you & your devotion to her. What a wonderful testimony of a loving family! Bless you all as you say goodbye & may all your many fond memories together be with you always
