Dear Shelly, Bonnie, Kevin and all of Beverly's beloved family,
Our family was so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. She was a kind and gentle woman. All of you have our deepest sympathies.
On a personal note, as I looked back into my memories of Mrs. Nyman, it occurred to me that she always, always seemed amused by the people and events surrounding her, making her so unique and charming.
We hold you in our hearts and prayers.
