Dear Barbara:
It caught me by surprise to see Boyd's obituary notice. Obviously, I haven't kept up with you and Randy and Traci, but you all have a very special place in my childhood memory.
Please know that I remember you and Boyd very well and fondly. You two were the coolest couple in Fairview!
I trust and pray that your health is good and that you will continue to prosper for many years to come.
All my love to you,
Matthew Burril
