Dear Edith:

Tues, 2/15/05, 12:15 pm

Just read the obituary for your mother in the Sun Times this morning. All of the "Little Flowers" were wonderful women. My kind thoughts and prayers to you, your brother and all of the family. I will be in touch with my brothers and sisters. Your mother's going home to God causes many wonderful remembrances-
