My Dear Sennetts:



So sorry to hear about your husband/father/grandfather. You know that I have always had such heartful feelings for your family. From Jonathan and Jason's relationship; to Laurie and my brother Michael's friendship in Highschool; and of course our friendship over the years - we go back a long way and my heart is feeling for you at this time as I know that your father was the heart of your family.



Laurie, I had your number from when we met at the dog park, but have misplaced it - please call (234-5128) when you are up to it! Thank you - All my love - Jo

We are so glad that we had some time to get to know him. We hope he rests in peace and brighter days to you and your family.
