Please accept my deepest sympathies upon the passing of your mother. Though the years and miles have separated us, the fond memories of your family shall remain forever. I hope that you and Ron and your families fare well during this difficult time and are comforted by the thoughts and prayers of one of your oldest of friends. I'll always remember Mrs Pickard's kindness for me and all the gang in the old neighborhood.

She was such a sweet lady ---- I remember the last time we were together at Mindy's and Barry's for Thanksgiving, she and I had a great time reminiscing.
Our thoughts are with you --Love, Peggy and Harold
