Dear Pat,
I am so sorry for the loss of your father. What a wonderful array of interests he pursued. May you find hope and comfort in your wonderful memories of your time together, and through the grace of the Lord. Only now have I discovered my mother was four days older than your dad.
Peace to you and your family,
Dottie Eastman Simonides
