Remembering Faye and Edward Weltz

Email from Dan to Ellie:

here's what my mom put together.  she said we can change whatever.

Faye Staff Weltz (1917-1974) and Edward Weltz (1911-1970) loving parents of
Marilyn, grandparents of Jessica Faye, Daniel Eugene, and Edward Julian. 
Kind, warm-hearted, and generous, they cherished family above all else. They
valued study, education, and Judaism. The best parents anyone could have
had.

Remembering Aunt Betty

Email from Ellie to wedding planner:

We will have flowers in Betty's honor and a memorial card:

Betty Lawrence

My favorite aunt, also known as "Gramma Pinecone," always generous with cinnamon candy and back-scratches. Aunt Betty was one of the kindest, warmest people you could ever hope to meet, she had a 600 watt smile and a cackling laugh. Betty's death, a year ago today, was a tragedy. She left us far too soon. I will remember Aunt Betty with love today, and on every bittersweet anniversary in the future.
