Mrs Mack,
I was saddened to learn of the loss of Fritz. I offer my sincere condolences.
You may not remember me but I was one of your English students at Immaculate Heart High School. I lived two blocks to the west of you on Walnut Street, and I hung out on Kelly's corner.
Also, I was an aquaintence of your son Ronnie. I spent some time with him and his friend Kurt Wetzel.

Dr. Mack Very sorry to hear of the death of your brother. I know how friendly my mother was with you and your family. On one of my visits with her in Fla we had dinner with your parents and she frequently spoke of you. My condolences to your mother.
