Dear Deb,Chuck, and Mark,

So very sorry to read of your Mom's passing. Please know that Susan were planning to come to pay our respects on Friday. I had a fall that landed me in the ER. So we could not come Friday or Saturday. Bill and I enjoyed your parent's company many times. Lois accompanied me on a few occasions when I used to solo. She was a very sweet and accomplished lady. With Sympathy. Pat Stewart
