Dear Karen and Diane. So sorry to hear of the loss of your mom. I remember all the relaxing summer days in the little cottage and how accepting and welcoming she was of the friends that came to hang out there. Those were the days my friends!

Diane and Rick, please accept our sincere condolences on the passing of your mom. We remember meeting her on a cruise many years ago along with her smile, her great sense of fun and her obvious pride in her grandchildren. Keith and Pauline Payton

Karen, Diane & family.... I am so sorry for your loss. Growing up next door, your mom was like a 2nd mom... just a tad more patient. :-) I have nothing but fond memories from Valiquette as do, I am sure, my brother and sister. It has been DECADES since I have seen you all but you have never left my thoughts. As you gather to remember Mrs. Hawthorne, may your friends and family comfort you and remind you of the many fond memories you shared. You are all in my thoughts.

So sorry to hear of your Mom passing my deepest sympathy to all the Family

Dear Karen and Diane, I am so very sorry for the passing of your mom. I have so many wonderful memories of your mom loved her dearly.

Dear Diane and Karen, my condolences to you both and your families 💓

I’m so sorry for your families loss. Sara was certainly the matriarch of the Hawthorne family, and left behind a wonderful legacy. Your mom was always so full of life and ready to chat with those she met. I have very fond memories of your mom. Sara will be greatly missed. May she Rest In Peace 🙏

Dear Karen and Diane and the whole Hawthorne family, Please accept our deepest sympathies on the passing of your wonderful mother, grandmother, great-grandmother. She was a wonderful woman, "salt of the earth" as they say. A proud Newf and caring person. Rest peacefully Mama.

We are so very sorry for your loss. Grandma Sara was a beautiful woman inside and out. My first memory when I met her was that since both our names were Sara without an "H" we were bonded - and better than the rest ;) There are many memories I will hold close and I hope you are all able to do the same. We are sending our love and support to all of you at this time. xoxo

Our deepest sympathy to all of GiGi's family. She was a delightful lady and we know how special she was to all of you. May the memories tucked away in your heart wrap you in comfort and bring you peace. Sharon and Jens and Nana.

We will miss you so much. We are grateful for all of the time we got, although no amount of time would have ever been enough. We will carry you in our hearts every single day. We love you Grandma / GiGi.
