So Sorry to hear of the loss of your Mother. Keeping you an your family in my prayers.

Mrs. Joann so sorry to hear about your mom. You and family are in my thoughts and prayers. Johnathan sends his condolences too.
Ms. Julia was a wonderful lady. She is one of the reasons I am still a reading junkie to this day. Even when I didn't want to seem "dorky" with my head in a book, the library with Ms. Julia was a place I could hide out and read the classics.
Joanne,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of you mom. I always enjoyed talking with her at the library many years ago. You and your family are in my prayers.
Sorry to hear of Mrs Julia she was nice to let me work for her for a while
I am so sorry for your loss. I am praying for God's comfort for the family.
She was a wonderful lady. She will be truly missed.
Mrs. Hook was a very special lady and will be truly missed. I am proud that I had the opportunity to know Mrs. Hook. The conversations we had and my memories of her will always be cherished.
Mrs. Hook was one of my favorite people. I worked for her at the library one summer in between college. She was such a great lady, and I'll miss her!
May God comfort you during this time.
I'm sorry for your lost, your grandma reminded me of my grandma Lois!!
She will always be with you!
MS. HOOK WAS A BEAUTIFUL SOUL; HER MOTHER WAS MY KINDERGARTEN TEACHER; SHE WAS "THE BEST" AND SO WAS HER DAUGHTER, MS. HOOK
May you rest in peace Julia. You will be greatly missed.
