Dear Carole,
Denise Bacon called me and told me of your fathers death. If it had been beforehand, I would have liked to stop at the wake.
What a long life he had. I hope he enjoyed it and was not sick. How wonderful that he was buried from I.H.M. They have redone the church, but it is still home.
Time really does go by. How wonderful that your parents were together so long.
My sympathy to you.
