For David Unger and family and Hannah's family, who do not know me.

My sincerest sympathies are with you all. Hannah was a grammar and highschool classmate of mine on the South side and wanted you to know that although I am unable to attend the funeral, I'll be thinking of you. Dick joins me in this message.

Fondly, Ann
