Dear John and family----I am sorrowful over your loss; yet something isn't truly lost if we know where it is. We know where your beloved Millicent is, and she is rejoicing with the reunion of your precious mother, Effie, a renowned and well loved educator. Sally and I thank your for your service with me as Columbus Office Manager for the Third Congressional District where you served with distinction. We will speak your names in our prayers.
Love,
The Jack and Lois Brinkley family
