Alison, Jeff and family,
I wish I could tell you that the pain you feel gets easier or someday you could understand why something so tragic happens but the pain never goes away and I don't think anyone could ever understand why. But I do know that your mom was a wonderful woman and her amazing traits shine on in all of you. Take comfort in remembering her and smiling at the little things that remind you of her...a smell, a photo, a song. Talk to her when you are feeling down, she is listening, she is watching over all of you now and forever.
Sending our deepest sympathy to all of you.
Janet, Steve, Ryan and Justin xo

I knew Claire because of our shared love of the Yorkshire Terrier. Claire was a Charter Member and a very important person in our club, the Watchung Mountains Yorkshire Terrier Club, and served in many positions as President and Board member. Her true honest compassion for people and dogs, her love of the sport of dog shows, her influencial breeding and showing of Yorkies, her care of rescued Yorkies, and impeccable sportsmanship, made her my mentor and I am humbled by her memory.
You will be sorely missed but your name lives on.
Love,
Terri Cuchiaro
