My deepest condolences to the Zellner family. I knew Mrs. Zellner briefly as her primary care doctors nurse. She always had a big smile on her face when she came in and always made me laugh with her stories. I can speak for the whole staff that she will be greatly missed.
Again I am sorry for you loss.
Mark, We're sorry for your loss. I didn't know your mum well, but she seemed really nice. I wasn't aware that she worked at the shoe factory with my dad. I really liked your parents and am sure they were very proud of you. Your friend always, Grish
We are sorry for your loss! You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers!
