Tom,

I am sincerely sorry for the loss of your father. I am unable to attend the services due to currently being at my folks house in PA but our thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family during this time.

I am so terribly sorry to hear about Wally's passing. I was able to speak to him before I moved to California a few years ago. My late father, Jim Morris, had fond memories of Wally and Teresa. When Wally and I talked, we spoke about the fascinating genealogy of the Foody family, and I appreciated his warmth and keen intelligence. I truly wish I could be there for the services.
