I was very sorry to read of your Mother's passing. She was one of my favorite people. I got to know her quite well both when she worked for me and when we skied and played tennis. You were blessed to have two great parents and I was lucky to know them.I won't be able to attend the ceremony in June (I'll be in Massachusetts) but my thoughts will be with you. I hope this finds you all well.
Sincerely,
Foster Kay

I was so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. The Burgess and King clan's had a great time together back in the day. I talked to your mom a few years back while she was living in Branford, but we never had a chance to get togehter before my mom passed away. I will always remember your mother as one of the most delightful people I have know. Lois King Willis
