Dear Phyllis and family,
We express to you all our sincere sympathy
and know that we will keep you in our prayers.
We have Kristin in our prayers too.
The few times we met you in our visit to our
daughter Catherine and the events in their
lives and Teresa and John's. Dave and I
would have some nice chit chat, small talk.
Keep in mind one of the Beatitudes, blessed
are they who mourn for they shall be comforted.
God bless you all.
love and prayers,
Lucy and Russ Pitrone
