Dear Nora,
How sadden I am to read about Colin. I only have a small memory of him from our high school days because he, as it seemed back then,was SO much older then us. Please give all your family my deepest prayers for peace in this time of greatest sorrow. Your family was a part of my teenage years that I will remember always. Be kind to yourself Nora and remember you have a lot of friends who wish you the best.
Love Charlotta
