Just wanted to say how sorry I am that you have lost your Dad. We have known each other since 1954 and over the years we have had so many wonderful times and lots of good memories. He has always called me his sister for many years. Since Pauline went to be with the Lord, he has been so unhappy. We have talked so much on the phone since. I was going to see him this weekend. I promised him when I got back from my trip, I would come see him. I miss him already. He was thought of by so many of our friends. He is really happy now that he is with Pauline. Try and think that in days to come. Love to all of you, Jo Martin
