Dearest sister, My heart was heavy for you the day I got that call about Clair and I know that we all miss him very much. I just wanted to tell you of one of the first things i really remember about him. It was when Tasie was just a few months old and our family all got together at his North Ogden home for a x-mas party. This kind man did something that will always remind me of him. Do you remember? Let me tell you. He gave something to each child that day that I have kept for Taise it was a $2.00 bill. I believe that they had just to printed them. I know that she (Tasie) doesn't remember it but I always will. I love you so very much ! I am so grateful for all that you and Clair have done for me. Thank you for bringing such a wonderful man into your lives.

With all my love, Nola
