Janet: Tom and I were so saddened to hear about Garth. We so enjoyed running into you and Garth at the Texas-Michigan game and renewing our friendship when we had not seen each other in so many years. We think of you constantly and want you to know that you are in our prayers. Tom and Mary Lott (Las Vegas, NV)

Our prayers are with you and all the family members.

Janet, I was so sorry to hear of Garth's accident. He was always a gentleman with a smile on his face. It has been many years, but it seems like yesterday seeing the two of you together. Our best to you and yours in these most difficult of times...

Dears Janet, Molly, and Stewart,
