So sorry …to hear about your mother and didn’t know of your father’s passing either. I was their letter carrier on Briarwood for many years.I always enjoy seeing them in the front window and waving to me as I delivery their daily mail. Also always enjoyed my many chats at the mailbox;with both Leon and Anna. My sincere condolences.

Vince, My Mom and Dad always talked fondly of you! Dad passed last April 2nd. The house was sold in August. Thank you for your kind words!

Our entire family’s thoughts and prayers are with Anna’s family. She and Mom were great roommates. They really watched out for each other.
They are both sadly missed
Dear family.
I so enjoyed Anna and Lee. I am always at a loss for words, so I like to share a poem with you by Calvin Miller
The Devine Symphony
I once scorned ev’ry fearful thought of death, when it was but the end of pulse and breath,
But now my eyes have seen that past the pain
There is a world that ‘s waiting to be claimed
Earthmaker, Holy, let me now depart,
For living’s such a temporary art,
And dying is but getting dressed for God,
Our graves are merely doorways cut in sod.
Barbara, so sorry for your loss. I have many fond memories of Ann at Kodak and bowling.
Aww Carol, so kind of you to reach out! Mom was so fond of you! Are you still in Irondequoit?
I am so sorry for your loss! Anna was truly one of my favorite members to wait on and I will always remember her! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
