To my Godmother Amy:

My sincere condolences to you and the rest of the girls.When my godfather passed away I was in Manzanillo , Mexico with my sister Joanne, her husband Rob, and my parents Abie & Josie. My sister hired a contractor and couldn't wait for us to meet him especially my dad because she said he looked like Red. So most of the week my dad recounted many funny stories about you and my godfather, when you were dating and how your dad was very stict and the funny stories that went along those lines. When we got home we heard the news about Red. My dad took the news especially hard after talking to Bob Cabrera. I want you to know that you are all in my prayers.

Love,Liz
