Susan and Family, I was saddened to hear of the passing of your Mom. She was always Brown Owl to me and as my sister Jordan said, I am quite certain there is one heck of a bridge marathon on going. Our thoughts are with you and your families. Great regards, Jody Ruttenberg

Dear Susan and Family,
I just heard the news of your mum. It brought a tear to my eye and a warm feeling to my heart thinking back about Brown Owl and all the card parties our mothers had together. I can just hear all the chatter at the great bridge table in the sky. My thoughts are with you, all.
