Holly, Rick, Chad, Jason and families, 

I have just heard of your loss and extend my deepest sympathy to all of you.  It is so very hard to lose a mother/grandmother but know that she is at peace now.  May your memories keep you strong.

As Holly's friends we regret not ever having met Aileen. For several reasons, we suspect Aileen was a wonderful woman, full of love and goodness. First because everything we know about Aileen's family via Holly, reflects Aileen's influence...her love of family, hospitality & compassion to all, her charisma and a sense of humor. From the stories we have heard about Chad and the loving way you/he cared for your/his grandma over the years we have only GREAT admiration and respect. You are a gifted and special human being Chad. Yours is a fortunate family. Together with our prayers, you have our love and respect at this difficult time and beyond.

Dear Rick, Holly, Tony and family,

We send sincere condolences and you are in our hearts and prayers. Aileen was a wonderful person and we are glad to have known her. May you take solace in the thoughts of happy times with both your mom and dad.

I will ALWAYS remember the pitch tournament at Bill & Bertha's, the brownie bake-offs in Aileen's famous kitchen and the impromptu charades on a quiet weekend in the house. 
My heart will remain broken as I relive those memories of days gone by. 
Sleep in peace my SWEET, SWEET PRINCESS!!!

Please accept my special prayers and thoughts for Aunt Aileen, Holly and Rick and all the other Family Members.

Tears flowed when I heard about my aunt Aileen passing. Granny now has all her children with her in heaven. Much sympathy to all the family.
Love, Tim
