Dear Mr. Atkinson, Sean and Sherri,
You are in my thoughts at this most difficult time. I will always remember Mrs. Atkinson with fondness from my days as a Brownie when she was the troop leader. It was always a joy to run into her over the years around Marshfield and at Venus II. May memories help to comfort you.
