Jennifer, Lisa and Joe,
Please accept our deepest sympathy and prayers for peace. Both Mom (Kathy) and Dad (Ted) have
been in the hospital and to rehabs. We were very sorry to recently learn of your Dad's passing. Personally, I have fond childhood memories of your Dad and being in your homes in Chicago and Fox Lake. I hope happy memories are a comfort to all of you. Cousin Karen and Family
