Dearest Robert, Debbie and Annie:
Please accept my deepest sympathies on the passing of your mother.
I was her secretary at the University of Chicago and considered her "my other mother".
I am so sorry I cannot be there with you today. We are out of town.
My thoughts and prayers are with you- for Always.
Love,
