Dear Bob & Family,

Nick and I were always delighted to see you and Dot when you would stop by on your way to visit family or to attend Virginia State University activities. We always enjoyed talking about old times and days at State.

My family and I send condolences to you and your family and will keep you in our prayers. We plan to make a donation to Virginia State in Dot's name.

We'll keep in touch and hope that you and your family will continue to visit when you're in the area.

We are very sorry to hear of Mrs. Edmonds passing (Dot). Mr. and Mrs. Edmonds were very close to us growing up. I will always remember the family get-togethers and more recently, seeing them at the Virginia State University Homecoming games. Our son, Julian, will be starting his Junior year at VSU. We will make a donation to VSU in her honor.

Blessings;
Michael J. Bentley, SR.

To the Family,

I met Soror Edmomds at a Petersburg Alumnae Chapter meeting that she attended with Soror Gloria Allen. She, Tonya Brown-Fletcher, and I took a picture together. I sent her a copy of that picture a couple of months ago. I am Alpha Eta Fall 1965. I was delighted to meet her.

May your faith and memories sustain you now and always.
