Dear Phyllis and family:
I was so sorry to hear of the passing of Boots. He was a good friend and a joy to work with for all those years at U S Steel Supply.
Our prayers are with you.

Aunt Phyllis,
I am so sorry for your loss. Uncle Al will be missed very much! I know Memaw (Helen) is very thankful for the time she got to spend with him last month. You are all in my prayers.
