To the Pope Family,
I wish to express my deepest sympathy. Mr. Pope was a hero to all the young men in the neighborhood. He employed many of them and started them in the Brick masonry career. He was a loving father, husband and grandfather. He treated his children's friends as his own. I spent many nights over at the Pope's residence. I am so sorry that I am not able to be there in physical form, but rest asured that I am there in spirit. Trust that God will heal your hearts because he has welcomed his newest angel.
