My deepest sympathies. May the "God of all comfort," help to ease the pain of your grief during this time.(1 Cor 1:3,4)

Dear Barbara,

Forgive this rapid way of getting in touch with you, but I'm about to take off on a trip.
I am very much in your shoes these days, and can imagine the "void" that goes along with your sadness about Stu. I certainly remember his friendliness and what a great father he was. He was clearly smitten with you, which should give you some comfort for making his life so happy. I think my first memory of YOU was when you were helping at St. Peter's and you were quite pregnant with.......Nancy?
I'm so glad Stu's name is on the plaque in the Park. I send love, Lou Keeling
