Allyn, Kent and Lyle,

Frank and I wanted to tell you that we are sorry for the loss of your mother. We knew your mom for several years and always looked forward to seeing her. We too wish that she had been able to enjoy her retirement longer. She was a very sweet, kind hearted person and we will miss her.
