Dear Max,
I have been out of town and just saw Sally's name in Today's Catholic. I'm so sorry Max that your Sally is gone, she was such a joy when we worked together many years ago and will be missed. I just thought of her one day last week and smiled, maybe she was saying "til we meet again friend!"
