Dear Uncle Ronnie, Rob, & Lenny,
I'll always remember the good times when Aunt Jean and Uncle Ronnie lived at the lake. I'd take the kids to visit when I was in town during the summer. Aunt Jean always welcomed us all with open arms and made every visit really special. She was such a gracious hostess and I will always look back on those visits as some of my favorite memories. Please accept my and my family's condolences. I will truly miss my beautiful aunt.
Love,
Kathy
