Dear Jamie and family:
Unfortunately, I will not be able to make the wake; however, I wish to express my deepest condolences to you and your family on the loss of your grandmother. Just reading the obituary leads me to believe she had a fascinating, productive life. Please remember the good times you had with her, and know that my thoughts are with you all. Hope to see you sometime soon at OLPD Theatre.

Sincerely, Joe Collins
