Dear Tryban Family,
I am sorry for your loss.
Our family lived next door to Mr. Tryban, the boys, Patty and Louise on 47th Stree in Chicago.
Through out my life I have thought of
your family and even tried to locate my childhood friend Patty.
I am sorry to read that she passed also.
I have many fond memories of those days.

Sincerely, Rosalie Serrano
