Nancy, Charlie, Stacy and family:

So sorry to hear about Aunt Elizabeth. She and all of you are in my thoughts and prayers.

While it's a difficult time, I am smiling as I sit here and think of her and Uncle Tony. She was always so positive. Whenever she was around, I just felt better about everything. She was a dear and committed friend to mom and dad and I will forever think of her fondly, with a warm heart and a smile on my face.

Love to you all,

Danny Miller and family
