Gary, Scott and Betsey – and families,
So sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. Fond memories from Otsego Ave. – She was a wonderful neighbor and certainly a wonderful mother. But keep her memories alive in your hearts.
With love and sympathy,

I am so sorry to hear about your mom. She was such a dear friend of my mom’s (Sandy Saunders) and truly a lovely lady. She was so proud of her family – she would talk about you all the time. My thoughts and prayers are with you all, Andrea Batchelder
Grams, as she was dearly called, was ́so attentive and loved by all her grandchildren. Her sweet demeanor will be missed by all.
So sorry for your loss. I remember Aline from SLA as the nicest and kindest person. I kept in touch through facebook and loved her posts about family. Her love and pride of her family was immense. May she rest in peace.
Dear Scott, Gary, Betsie and families,
I am so sorry for the passing of your Mom, Grandmother and Great Grandmother. She was truly a beloved member of her extended Walker family. May you all find peace knowing she is in the arms of God.
Scott, Gary and Betsy,
I’m so sorry for your loss. Your mom was a lovely lady, attentive and caring. My mom appreciated her friendship so much she referred to her as her sister. I used to be so envious of you, because I thought your mom was “cool”. Remember the prize box? She used to let you pick a prize for cleaning your room. We didn’t get prizes for doing our chores. When your mom became a grandma, I remember her talking about spending time with her granddaughter by taking her to dance class. She inspired me to provide dance classes for my granddaughters. May your memories comfort you.
Farewell my dear friend. I will miss our 82 years of friendship. Most recently our telephone visits and how much we truly always cared for one another. I hope you did not suffer and are now in the arms of the Lord. I will always love you and keep you in my prayers. My deepest sympathy to your beautiful family.
Dear Betsy, Gary and Scott – I’m sorry for the loss of your wonderful mother. I have memories of Ostego Ave. still…. You mother was the nicest, sweetest woman. May she rest in heavenly peace and I hope you find comfort that you will one day all be reunited.
Im so very sorry for your loss. She was a kind and sweet woman.
I will miss seeing her.
