  1. Dear Bevy,Billy,Bonnie and Betsy, I was so sorry to read of the loss of your mother. She was a lovely lady and always so kind. I was the family babysitter when you lived on Winnett Street in Hamden. Thinking of all of you at this sad time. Love, Jane Cassidy Nocerino

  2. Dear Beverly, Will, Bonnie and Betsy and Mr. Wogahn,
    I send my sincere condolences on the passing of your Mom, Sally, and on the
    previous passing of your father, Wilfred. We lived around the corner from you on Augur Street and I occasionally babysat when my sisters were not available. I have very fond memories of your parents. May you find comfort in your memories,
    Fondly,

  3. Betsy, Beverly, Bonnie and Billy, sending my deepest condolences. Growing up I spent a lot of time at your house playing and riding our bikes in the neighborhood, especially near the big sand piles, lol.
    Your Mom was always so kind to me, she treated me like one of her own children. I will never forget those fond memories đź’ž

  4. Beverly and family. We send our thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. Through Bev’s stories, I feel like I have known Ms. Sally. May the memories sustain you until you see her again.
    With heartfelt Sympathy,
