Dear Adrienne, Jim and Ian,
Although it has been many years since I last saw your father/grandfather, I have many happy memories of him and your mother when you had me over to the house during our college years. He was working hard on finishing the house and I remember the party to christen the beautiful kitchen he built for your mother. I am very sorry for your loss . . . he will be missed dearly. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.
