Dear Uncle Bob, Pam, Barbara and all the grandchildren and greatgrandchildren,

Mom and I are so sorry to have lost Aunt Marie. We wish we could be there with you. Through these difficult past 3 months, we have been thinking of you and praying for you. All the pictures we had of you have meant so much, remembering the 50's when you lived down here and all the dear pictures that Aunt Marie sent of all the grandchildren and greatgrandchildren. Dad was so happy to speak with Aunt Marie on her birthday in February. We treasure the memories and our hearts go out to you in this difficult time.

Much love,

Doris and Karen
