Dear Rich and Mom,

I just want to send my deepest sympathy on the death of your beloved father and husband. I will always remember Rich, the great love you showed Arlene, especially in her time of illness. I will also always remember your two aunts delicious cookies. My mom passed away on the feast day of the Assumption of Mary, August 15, 2001.
