Dear Bruce and Mary Ann,

I am so sorry to hear of the death of your brother and my cousin. Although it has been quite a few years since we had had much communication, I did keep up a bit with him as we would see Bob Zagaros at least once a year and I would ask about Harold then.

My sister Lillian, died this past Thanksgiving. She was living in Glenwood, MN and thank goodness we were able to get up there and were able to spend time with her during her last three...
