Dear Bob, Michael, Mark and David,
I have such wonderful memories of times together with Dolly growing up. It was such an honor to be in your wedding so many years ago. My only regret is living so far apart during the later years. Charlie and I send our thoughts and prayers to you and your family during this time. Dolly may you rest in peace.
Love,
Jan Blair Wyatt
