Dear Lola An Family,
The years have pasted since we have hung out together but the memories are very fresh in my mind. When I met your Dad it was instant "what a nice an gentle man" He showed much love for you an took me in as one of your friends an always made me feel welcome. I think of you often an hope that you begin to dry your tears of sorrow only to know you will reunite one day. He will be watching over you until then. Tell Mom an brother Joe I'm thinking of them.
Love You
