Dear Sandy and Diane,
I just found out today that your father past away recently. I will never forget working for him at Goodman, Gray. He taught me so much more about accounting than any school. He was so nice to work for. I use to love it when your mom came into the office and watch the two of them! They were both so much fun. He is now with the love of his life!
You have my deepest sympathy.
