Christine & family,

I worked with Iris and we were friends for many years. We had some great times and lots of laughs, and we kept each other up to date on our families. I am sure you know how much you and your family meant to Tom and Iris. Thank you for posting the photos of your mom and dad. I will miss her, but I agree that she and Tom are together now, and that makes me smile.

Sincerely,
Pam
