Dear Ted,

Both Pat and I were deeply saddened with the news of Libeth's passing. Words can not express our sincere sympathy and condolences to you and your family.

The service on Monday was inspirational and moving. The letter Joan prepared was a celebration of life, I'm sure Libeth would be extremely proud. She will be in my prayers.

Sincerely,

Myles McEvilly

Lorry and I were so impressed by the service yesterday for Libeth. Joan's letter and background information were very moving. Your wife and mother was quite an accomplished, loving person. Take time to celebrate the memories you all have. Live with the the knowledge of her gifts to each and everyone of you. May your future happiness and living reflect what she was to you and what she would have wanted for you now. Very sincerely,
