To Sandy, Stacey and all of the Fischer Family,
I just read about the loss of your Mother. I don’t think I can truly express how sorry I am for all of you or how sad I am to hear this news. I have many wonderful memories of the fun times I spent with you, and your Mother is a very a special part of them. She truly was a kind, loving and generous person. I will never forget how welcoming and good, she was to me and to anyone who visited your home in Norwood. I pray she is at peace and I pray that all of you will find comfort in the wonderful memories you have.
God Bless you, Mrs. Fischer. I will never forget you!
Love,
John Folan

I thank you for all the years of love, dedication, sacrifice and devotion you have shown me my whole life. I am honored and blessed to be your daughter. The memories of you and all the time we spent together will comfort me the rest of this life time and beyond. The time we spent during the last weeks of your life here were very precious. I enjoyed our quiet evenings of intimate conversation and the energy work we did together. It was my pleasure and privilege to share that with you. I know you will be near to me always.

Gramma,
Some of my fondest childhood memories are of the times we spent together. I am blessed to have had such great moments with you – coloring, wrapping Christmas gifts, going to lunch at Friendly’s, going for ice cream at Bubbling Brook. The most ordinary of activities were made to be so much fun! Thank you…you will be missed by all. May you find peace.
