Judy,

Aunt Bette Gries and I are so sorry that we were unable to attend your mother's funeral. I enjoyed talking with her when I last saw her.

Actually, I was in the hospital and Aunt Bette must have not read the obituaries. I would have loved seeing you and your family again. Margie Gries Garwood
