Laura and Karen I am so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. I was your 1st grade teacher at St Mary. I know it has been many years but I do remember both of you and also your parents. My last name was Spencer when I was your teacher. I also remember your Dad being in the State Police. Always treasure the memories you have of your Mom, they will be of comfort to you. Know that you are both in my prayers as also the rest of your family. Feel free to contact me by my email if you wish to do so. God Bless All Of You! Memories can not be taken away, I guess that is why I do remember your family.
Sincerely,
Suzanne Krohn

Having lost my mother a few years back, I understand the loss and grieving you are all going through. Understand, it does take time, but it will get easier to deal with. My thoughts are with Karen and the rest of her family during your time of loss.

I was deeply saddened to hear of Mrs. Vesey's recent passing. My thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time. While we only met a couple of times, the many stories I heard shared what an entertaining and supportive person she was to be around. I know she will be missed greatly. During this difficult time, I know you will draw upon your own strengths and the strength of loved ones that hold you in their thoughts. You have my deepest sympathy. Remember there are many people who care about you and are thinking about in this difficult time of sorrow.
Kim
