Not sure what to say?

Dear Peter Paul, This is terribly belated, but I just saw this. I am very sorry to hear of your father´s passing. I was a very good friend of your mother´s in art school and remember when she and your father met.

Sending love to Peter and his family with thoughts of your dad and mom.

Dear Peter, I've just learned of your father's passing. It touches me deeply as he was very close to my father Bert and to my husband Herb Stott, both of whom are gone now. I have sweet memories of your mother and father and would love to hear from you. Best regards, Merry

A recent trip to Albuquerque put me in front of a painting of a scrapbook with a newspaper clipping. I realized upon examination of the newspaper portion that I was in the presence of a level of artistic genius so rare I had nothing to compare it to. I will continue to speak of this experience for the rest of my life.

Peter & family, please accept my condolences. When I think about art and artists in S.Fe your father always comes to mind, and always brings a smile.

He will be missed. It was a pleasure to have known him and continue to know him through his art and family.

Dearest Paul. Pioneer. May you Rest In Peace now alongside your beautiful bride Carol. I will forever cherish your humor and grace.

Peter, and familyI'm so very sorry for your loss.
