I am so sorry to hear that Janet has passed. She was a great friend to my mom and to our family. I just saw this and feel bad I didn't find out in time to go to her funeral. I want to extend my sincere thoughts and prayers to your entire family.

Dear Curry Family,
I just saw the passing of your mother in Sunday's paper. I lived up the street from your parents & grandparents and thought a lot of them. I was a flower girt at your parents wedding and my sister and I went to their 50th wedding anniversary.
Please accept my heart-felt condolences.
