Dear Holt Family,

If they are the Holts that worked at Northeastern, I knew both Florence and Earl. Florence and I had offices on the same floor, next to each other. The people in our office enjoyed talking to her. She was always a lot of fun and full of spunk. Unfortunately, we fell out of touch after her retirement. I am so sorry for your loss.

Sincere condolences,

Buff Rosen Boyd
