My dear Roty,
Pierre sent me Don's obituary, and I send my condolences to you and your family.
I have many happy memories of our times together in Montreal...dinner parties, garage sales (pre, during and the post counting the money )
Grant and Adrienne play dates, sipping our gin and tonics!!
With love, Esther
