Dear Sue
I remember your brother listening to us sing at parties in high school. I can only imagine your grief at losing your brother. I know for me it would be immense. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I am sorry I was not able to be there for you at the funeral and wake as I was out of town.....thinking of you ....Liz

Dear Jim & Anne,
I am so sorry to hear about your brother. As you know I have also lost a sibling and it is not easy. My heart aches for you both and I will keep him and the two of you in my prayers.

Sue, Liz & Mary,
My heart aches that I can't be with you during this difficult period. Know that I am praying for John. He probably has a seat right next to Harry Caray and they are talking about the Cubs. I attached a photo I think will make the whole family smile; John with the 1984 Chicago Cubs. Susan, That trip was a highlight of his life and you made it happen. Be very proud of that.

I'm sending my love to the whole family. Keep in touch. Mary
