Dear Bill,
We are so sad to hear of Carol's passing. We will always remember the times we spent together. Even though we are miles apart we thought often about the two of you. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

So sad to hear the news. I'll always remember running down the middle of the street in Folly Beach with your mom and dad and Mike and your sister driving to the airport saw us and thought we were crazy or "something"! We must have been "something". That was the weekend of Jeff and Jill's wedding.
