Dear Kathy,
My sincere condolences to you and your family on the loss of your father. ~ Lynn

Dearest Ruth and Kathy,

I was so sorry to learn of Ed's loss -- I was just thinking of you all the other day while driving around Old Saybrook. I have such fond memories of you guys, especially the first time on a sailboat -- how kind and patient Ed was while I was not adjusting to the seas at all! You are in my thoughts and prayers always, but especially now in this time of loss.

Our deepest condolensces go out to Katie Barnes and the entire Hildreth family and extended family. -- Kent and Gab
