Dearest April and Michele,
I can’t tell you how much I am saddened by this tragic loss of your dear mother!  She was such a beautiful, loving, and very dear person.  I will always cherish the time that I had with her, and it was not enough!  Alas, how the years pass by so quickly, and there is never enough time to spend with your loved ones.  She was one of the best mothers that I have ever known.  And I will always remember her special batches of “Marilyn’s Popcorn”…..YUM!!  We had some fun times!!!  I will always love her and both of you!!  Love,  Lynn ( Kuhn )

April, Michele, Grandchildren and Family. My deepest sympathy to each and everyone of you. She was a beautiful friend and co-worker. I am shocked with disbelief that she has passed. She talked so much about her daughters and grandchildren. She will be truly missed by everyone. I wish that I could attend her service on Monday. However, I now live part-time in Chicago and I will not be home. That saddens me so much. I will be thinking of you all in prayer that god will comfort you on this most difficult day.
Deepest Sympathy

April,
I am saddened to read of the death of your Mother. I knew her casually from our conversations at the Health Campus. She always had a smile, and was so very pleasant and upbeat. I would pass her in the parking lot or in the elevator and always our conversation focused on you and Becky. We would update each other on what was happening in each of our daughter’s lives. She was so proud of you and her eyes would light up with joy when she spoke of Samantha and the fun she had with her while caring for her. She loved her family and definitely loved being a Grandmother. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Sincerely,
Linda Lautsbaugh
