I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. This note is from a childhood friend of Herb. I lost track of him as we lived separate but similar lives with the same interests and at Kodak for 34 years.

Kathy (and family),
I am thinking of you at this time and know that you have stayed the course during your father's fight with lymphona.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends..and sustained by God's everlasting love.
