Dear Aunt Mary, Dea and Jim,
I've been thinking a lot about Larry since the funeral, and hoping you are all dealing with your grief as it surfaces. His spirit has been very present with me the past week or so, and I know he is out of any kind of pain or suffering.
You are also in my prayers daily going forward.

Love,
Jone (Barone)
