Hi Uncle John and family,

I wanted to take this opportunity to express my sympathies to all of you on Aunt Jean's passing. I'm very sorry for your loss. I have many fond memories of all our times together over the years and I will hold onto those dearly. In my heart I believe Aunt Jean is in a better place and no longer has any physical ailments to plague her. She is healed now and watching over all of you.

Please know I'm here for all of you in any way I can be.

With Love,
Barb
