Dearest Mary,
So sorry for your loss. I don't think I can come on Thursday. Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

I met Mr. Odegard through the Chicago Freecycle group. He was very kind and gave me, a complete stranger, a computer and some other equipment he was no longer using, and generous with his time when I asked him for follow-up advice.

Bob and I served in the Navy together , V-12 in Clinton, Mississippi and unfortunately, I had lost touch with him. We called him the Count because of his elegant demeanor. I guess I was too late to find him and have lunch to renew our acquaintance! My condolences to the family. Bruce K Goodman, Highland Park Il, [email protected]
