Dear Roy and Family,

Lois and I were in Nursing at Purdue together--she was a terrific nurse and wonderful person and I'm so happy that I got to speak to her on the phone from WVa some weeks ago. I will surely miss the most talented person I know. I loved Lois!
Love from both of us,

Joan and Bill Gerwig
