To Mark and Tom, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families once again. I'm sure this seems too soon to be going throught yet another difficult and sad time. Life certainly is tapping into your coping skills and testing you. You come from good stock. This storm is yours to weather and when you've got your arms around it, maybe we should all meet at Green Valley to memorialize all of those who can't attend and celebrate life with those in attendance. Gary Ronan and I have been considering this.Until then, my kindest regards to all.

To The Soucie Family-

While we realize Dick is in a better place we were very saddened to read of his passing. For eighteen years I enjoyed his warm, charming smile every day from across the street at Malcolm Cadillac-Olds. where I worked for my day. He was a gentle man and someone I looked up to and loved talking with. It's been a very difficult year for all of you, may it be some comfort knowing all the thoughts and prayers from friends coming your way.



Deepest Sympathy from both my husband (who delivered mail to & adored Lauretta & Dick) and myself.
