Susie,
I'm so sorry for your loss. Please know you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dick and I want to send you all our love and sympathy. To you Susie,a special hug for all you did for Henry and his many VA friends, your constant kindness and concern were amazing.

To Kathy and family. Your Mum and Dad were so kind to me when I visited (frequently) and stayed at their house in the early 1980s. Your Dad was funny, scary and taught me to drink bourbon - a skill I have never lost. When they visited me in the UK, he regaled me with hilarious tales of their travels in Ireland. I will always remember both your Mum and Dad for their kindness, generosity and humour. God bless.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.
