To the family of Evelyn:
Sorry for your loss. Although over the years our paths did not cross often your mom was a super nice lady. She will be missed by all.
Dear Nancy, Dianne and Susan,
I was so sorry to hear that your Mom died. Your parents were truly such treasured friends of my parents, Bill and Margaret Manning. Whenever I saw your Mom she always wanted to have updates on family news and we would share a laugh about the “old days”. She was such a lovely lady and has left us with warm memories.

Susan and Jim. Our deepest condolences on the loss of your mother. She was an amazing woman with an abundance of energy. I loved hearing stories about her from you. You always spoke so fondly of her. Take care.
Words may fail when I wish to personally express my sorrows and sadness to hear about the bereavement of Evelyn. She was a true lady of wisdom. I remember the time when she used to greet all of us with a big smile on her face. May GOD give you strength and courage to deal with such a difficult phase. Accept the sincerest condolences.
