Dear Gail and entire family of my Dad's
sister Aunt Harriet and your Dad, my Uncle. I had just recently heard you had
celebrated his 90th BD and so was surprised to get this news from my brother Fred. It has been quite a few
years since I have seen your Dad.
I am saddened for all of you - and send
my love and prayers from Florida.
