Dear Don and Ruth and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I remember staying with your mom during summers while my parents worked. We appreciated her kindness. May the fond memories you have of her live your hearts replacing the grief today and in the days to come. May God wrap His loving arms around you giving you peace and comfort. We are praying for you.
With sincere sympathy,
Marti (Dickerson) Briggs

God bless Nanny, may she rest in pace. She was a kind person with nothing but goodness in her heart. Her smile lit up the room, and her distinctive laugh made you feel at home. Thank you Nanny for being you. We'll always remember the simple way you lived and the happiness you brought to us all.
Love the Kaszyks
