    Ted & family, Please accept our deepest sympathy with the loss of your Mother. At times like these there are no words that really offer comfort but perhaps Thomas Campbell, a Scottish poet, says it best "To live in hearts we leave behind, is not to die". Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Patty (Schmitt) Dittmar

    When You Smiled �When you smiled you had my undivided attention. When you laughed you had my urge to laugh with you. When you cried you had my urge to hold you. When you said you loved me, you had my heart forever." I am very sorry for your loss of such a beautiful mother, may God bless, comfort and embrace all of you with His love and may her memory be eternal. In Christ love, John

    It saddens me to hear the news and I am sorry I have to use this means to convey my sympathy. As a kid growing up in the Georges Run I was obligated to sell items such as candy bars and raffle tickets quite often against my will. Pearl and Paul always made things a bit easier with a welcome and full support. I will always remember Pearl as great person and will keep Pearl and all the family in my prayers. Mike DiNofrio
