Years ago, Fern and I had great fun "dancing" together - in the front row - at Jazzercise. Later, we'd often meet at Joe Zuni's for me to answer questions and help her plan their next trip. So glad I was able to share those good times with her.

May she rest in peace and may all who mourn for her be comforted by splendid memories.

When fern was onstage at times I forgot this woman is our friend traveling partner 
And dinner partner. Along with my good friend
Warren.

She inhabited the roles she played!

My condolences to the family!  Our family had some great times with Fern and Warren when we went to Italy on vacation together.  My two boys were her students in Northbrook, Illinois.  We became friends, and every time Warren and Fern came to town, we had lunch together.  She was a warm and sweet person.  She will be missed.
Alba, Tim and Danny Carroll

Our sincere condolences on Fern’s death.  She was an exceptional teacher and a person full of life and energy.  Our thoughts are with Warren,  her daughters and family.
May her memory be a blessing.
With love, Gracie and Phil.
