To Harriett (Harrie-Harrie)! All my love and condolences to you and your family on the lost of your beloved sister!
The passing of Ms. Ann hurt me deeply. She was such a beautiful person and she was my connection to my favorite aunt…Lousie Spencer. They were like sisters and both shared many stories and knowledge with me. Time passes and those we love go on to heaven, but the pearls of wisdom and love they leave behind are priceless. Thank you Ms. Ann and may you rest in eternal peace…
To Harritte Hart and family our sincere condolences on the loss of your sister Ann.

My condolences to the Brown and Barnette family, may Mrs. Brown rest in peace. I remember when she walked
from home to YNHH daily. Great neighbor and co- worker.
Elaine, I’m so sorry to hear of your mother’s death. May God be with you.
