    Marion,

    I was saddened to learn of your Mother’s death from my sister, Catherine Stern. Your Grandmother (we called her Aunt Mima) was actually my Mother’s Aunt. I was glad to have reconnected with your Mother after many years, and we exchanged Christmas cards and e-mails. My wife, Ruthy, and I extend to you, your brother and sister, and everyone in the Glassic family our heartfelt sympathy. You all will be in our prayers.

    Walt

    I am so sorry to hear of Margaret’s death; she and John were good neighbors for many years and kept in touch by emails and letters after I moved away for job reasons. She was always a good person to chat with, we shared a love of our dogs, and, although it was quite a while ago, we used to like to shop at outlets near the Poconos together. My heartfelt sympathies to the family — I am so saddened to hear of her passing.
    Mary
