Dear John,
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your dad, Peter. He really was a wonderful person - He so enjoyed all of the Greenview parties - and when I left he made it a point to come and say good bye. It meant so much to me.
I only heard this evening - please accept my heartfelt prayers and thoughts for you at this time.
Sincerely, Sandy Byrnes
