Dear Children, Grandchildren and Great Grandchild,
Your Mother was a resident of Alexandria Manor and my mother-in-law, Sylvia Shiroff’s roommate. Although she didn’t reside there very long, the times I would visit Sylvia, she was always very pleasant and would have a smile on her face to greet me.
As difficult as this time is, may you find comfort in knowing that your loved one will always be with you and the memories you shared will forever be a part of your life. With sympathy to you and your family.
Pat Shiroff
