To Jytte's family,
For as much as I can I share your grief, with the loss of mother, mother in law, and grandmother. She will be missed and remembered by me, as a woman of sweetness, strength, and standards. She expected as much of others as she did of herself. May the love of God, family, and friends sustain you during this time.

Fare thee well, Jytte. We knew each other only briefly, when your daughter cared for my wife and, together, we shared a fine evening meal at our home on Yacht Drive in Oak Island.

I never had the pleasure of meeting Jytte. But I know her oldest daughter Linda as a friend for over two decades.
And can testify that no greater love passed between mother and daughter.
There was real love and respect there.
So to Linda, her kids, Grand kids and friends, I offer my sincere condolence.
There is never enough time to spend with the ones we love.
