Dear Mary,

I was so sorry to learn of Tony's passing. He was my brother Knight and we enjoyed many conversations over the years when I was still in Bristol. I am sure he leaves you and your children with a treasuer chest of wonderful memories. May these same memories help console you in the days ahead. Len
