Clara, I'm so sorry to hear about Dick's passing. He was always so sweet and kind. I've really missed you guys since the days of St. Agnes and my joining of the Church. Take care and love and hugs to you and your family.

I had only known Dick and Clara for a couple of months but I was very happy I had the opportunity to care for Dick. He was an amazing man from what I was able to see.

And thank you Clara for giving me the opportunity to get to know both you and Dick.
