Dear Klotz family,
So sorry to hear of Marjean’s death. We just found out from Rachel Hunter. We know you must be terribly sad without her. She was so vibrant, deep-feeling and so smart, so receptive and PERceptive about those around her. She was the best mother ever. And such a beautiful woman, too. Lawrence, in fact, the whole world, is a lesser place without Marjean Macy Klotz. We’ll never forget her love and kindness for us, and what she was able to do for so many people. Goodbye, Marjean. THanks for being so sweet to us.
love,
Max and Cordelia
Eddie, Doug and I are so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in our prayers
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My deepest sympathy to your family. She will be remembered fondly.
Love,
Sara Mullin
Craig,
Sorry to hear of the passing of your mother.
My condolences.
Tor
My Dearest Klotz family:
It is with a heavy heart that I’m writing. I have so many regrets of not making it up to visit more often. I have many, many fond memories that I will hold dear and share with my little one, along with great pictures of Aunt Marjean. I know that she is free of pain and worry at this time and will be keeping a mindful eye on us from Heaven. God Bless you all and keep you close to His heart during this difficult time. Love, Lesa and Wyatt
