For the last week Anne has had a very bad cold, she planned on going to the wake, but decided she did not want everybody to be exposed to her cold. She sends her regrets.

Dear Hugh and Kenny,
I am so sorry about your Dad. He was a great guy. One time, he and Cheryl and I were sitting outside your house on Main Street watching a parade go by. My mother was in the parade because she was a police woman. He said, "That's your mother? She has nice legs!" And, another time, when I had just gotten out of the hospital, he took Cheryl shopping and they bought me groceries. Then he brought her to my house and she cooked our dinner and watched my kids so I could rest. I still miss her so much. Now they are together again. I hope you can take comfort in that. I think of Cheryl quite often and of all of you. Again, I am so sorry.
Love,
Nancy (Brown Gylphe) DeSimone
