I am a friend & former co-worker of Ann James. My deepest regrets on the loss to your family. Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend the wake or funeral due to existing commitments I can not change, but my family & I did want to express our deepest sympathy to the family. She is in a better place now that she is in God's care.

I wish to express my condolences to the whole family, but especially to Ann who I considered a good friend when we both worked at Nesbitt Hospital. Wish I could express my sympathies in person, but that is impossible at this time. Know that you will be in my thoughts & prayers.

Dear all... we live on the other side of the ocean but be sure that our hearts are there with all of you in this moment. We are really sorry, Ersilia has been a very important part of our lives even if far from Italy. My grand mother Adriana has cried a lot when I told her, but she has lots of beautiful memories of her best friend, and she has all the letters they wrote each other in all the years they have been far one from another. Won't be so simple without a wonderful person like Ersilia, but we are with you...
Love,
Mirca, Mario, Oriana e Adriana (Italy)

I was so saddened to read about the passing of Mrs. Pascucci. That sounds so formal, but that is how I always thought of her. With respect, but also with fondness. I liked her and held her in high regard. My schedule didn't allow me to get to the wake, but I want to extend my sincere condolences to the entire family and offer my prayers for her soul in Heaven and God's grace on you all during this difficult time.

Dear Annie and Skip,
I am so sorry. Didn't see the paper on Tuesday. Judy just told me today. I would have gone to wake and funeral mass if I knew. Annie please tell your Dad, your children and the rest of your family how sorry I am. I know you loved her very much and I am sure she loved you. I know Skip loved her. Last fall he was asking me about the stairglides when she was falling. It was good to see you, Annie even under sad circumstances. Tell Skip I miss him and crazy as I am I love him. Love you both and miss seeing you.
Love,
Maggie Klem
