My deepest condolences to you all. I remember so fondly working with your mom "Gilda" at SU Bookstores and she was a great mentor, coach and friend. She trained me to be a buyer and post her retirement because of her, I was promoted to interim buyer prior to moving on to Ames and beginning my awesome career in leadership. I remember her always smiling and I would get the lectures from her on what was best for me... oh did I enjoy that. We really connected and long after my leaving Syracuse, I would often ask my own Mom if she saw her at the McChesney Park Rec Center and to give her huh and tell her hello. Heaven is so much richer to have her, she is now with her love Bob and earth will truly feel the loss. I am a better person for having known her and know that countless others share that sentiment. God Bless her soul, and all of you!!! My heart and sympathies are with you all.
