A letter to Lo. Dear Lo. This is your Brother-in-law, Otis Girardeau, that is what you always called me. I am sadden to learn of your passing. Enjoyed our chance encounter at the McDonalds when I was working in that part of the state and the talk we had outside your home where we exchanged phone numbers. As with many things in life, we think time is on our side, but it does not always work out that way. May you rest in peace. Brother-in-law.
