Louis and family ~
Last night when you said your sister had passed away earlier, I didn't realize she was to be buried today. I have just noted her notice and wish to extend heart-felt sympathy to you and your family. May all your wonderful memories enfold and comfort each of you in God's love.
Sincerely,

Jackie Simpson

Please accept my deepest sympathies. I, too, am a retired Vepcovian, and knew Mary well. She was such a cheerful person and it was a pleasure to know and work with her.
