"So sorry to hear of the passing of your Mom, Susan, Tom, Sheila, Tim and Shari, I don\'t have any of your addresses so will post my sympathy to you here. Your mother was a wonderful woman and because of Tom being born the same day as I, our families became friends. She was a talented baker, and I\'m sure you all will miss her, but carry on the traditions she and your dad gave you. Stay close. Sorry I can\'t come to the funeral, got a cold and wouldn\'t want to give it to anyone. Donna Godden-Alloway"
