Dear Joanna, Sally, Larry and family,

Your dad was a great friend to mom and dad and a wonderful adult figure in my life. I enjoyed my chats with him over the years. All of you and your mom are part of childhood memories. In later years, it was especially comforting to know that mom and dad would spend their holidays with you. We are so sorry for your loss. Please accept our deepest sympathy.

Love Kay and John
