To Thomas, Anna, John, Lori, and the entire Golden Family:

I always envied your parents. Tom and Dorothy were together every day, rain or shine - Tom in his suit and tie driving from engagement to engagement, Dorothy by his side, with a big smile on her face and humming a tune. I wanted a marriage like theirs, and was fortunate enough to experience one (partly due to their encouragement and generosity many long years ago). I will always be grateful for the love they shared and the wonderful example they set for my generation. Dorothy and Tom were the best and their enduring gifts to us are their very special sons, Thomas and John. Thank you!
Love,
Cousin Maureen
