“Dear Buddy, Valerie and Mickey, I am so sorry for the loss of Dora. I have wonderful memories of her in years gone by. My last visit was to your home at the cabin, it was so beautiful. I came on the train with my son, Mark Reynolds, when he was a baby (2 years old) I spent some time at your house Buddy. You and Dora were great fun to be with and I have never forgotten those times I shared with you two. Knowing where our loved ones have gone and knowing we will be together again helps us.”

“Dear Buddy, Mickey, Valerie and families. We were saddened to learn of Dora's passing. You have meant so much in our lives even though we may not have been as close in later years as we would have wished. We have fond memories of earlier times with you and they will always be in our hearts. As children we were in awe of Cousin Dora with her warm personality and dynamic energy. She was the best. Take comfort knowing that she is at peace with all her departed loved ones. Harriet and Tommy Barber”
