Maureen,

I am so saddened by he news of Glenn's death. Even though I am terrible about keeping in touch I think of all the great times we had together often. He was a great friend and I laugh often of the times we had together. I will cherish them forever.

Meg and I and the kids are praying for you and your family.

Love,

Jim
