Dearest Harris and Jamie-

Emma saw on Facebook that Paula had passed away. I don't know how else to reach you, so I am writing here. I was so sorry to hear that she had died. I know how much you both loved her and that you must be devastated with her loss. She was such a sweet and vivacious person, so full of life. Gerry and send you love and hope you are filled with good memories of her life on earth.

Love,
Lela
