Condolences to the Family

To the Ahlers family: So sorry to come across this news of your mom’s passing. She was a wonderful lady who was very kind and supportive to me over the years we were in touch. I last spoke to her when I was in Pittsburgh for a 1999 Pitt alumni event and she wanted my mother and I to come see her in Bethel Park. I’m sorry we were not able to fit that visit in, but we had a nice chat on the phone. Our condolences to you all.

So sorry for our loss. Meals on Wheels this Wed was on our schedule and next to it was go see Keith’s mom after. Always a pleasure seeing her twice a month and always a huge smile wave and thank you. Lots of memories for all of you I am sure.

We lived near Jeanette at the Highlands.  She was a lovely lady and fun to talk with about her experiencs in life and her family.  Sorry for your family’s loss and sorry for us that we won’t get to visit with her again.
