DEAREST ANGIE:

YOUR DAUGHTER MARY CALLED ME YESTERDAY AND TOLD ME ABOUT JOE. I KNOW HE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED. AFTER I TALKED WITH MARY LATE LAST NIGHT, I SAT DOWN AT MY DESK AND WROTE SOME OF MY FEELINGS. I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT FIND SOME COMFORT IN READING THEM.

I LOST ONE OF MY SPECIAL FRIENDS THIS WEEK. NO FAIRWELL WORDS WERE SPOKEN. NO TIME TO SAY GOODBYE. IT HURTS SO MUCH TO LOSE A BELOVED FRIEND WHO HAS BEEN A PART OF MY LIFE AT WORK AND PLAY FOR OVER FORTY...

Mary,
I was deeply saddened to hear of your father's passing. My heavy workday did not allow me to attend the funeral. My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family. May your memories bring you comfort.

Mary, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Sending love and prayers to you and your family.

LITTLE JOE WAS A FRIEND OF MINE. WE WORKED TOGETHER FOR YEARS AT ST. JOE PAPER CO., AND SHARED MANY GOOD TIMES AT THE "FISHING SHACK" AT CHOCOLATE BAYOU. WE HAVE MANY FOND MEMORIES OF FISHING, GATHERING OYSTERS, AND JUST TELLING STORIES. JOE ALWAYS DID THE COOKING, AND WAS A GREAT COOK.
OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH ANGIE AND THE FAMILY. JOE WILL BE MISSED.
