Dear Sondra and family,

I seen your Mother's obituary in the newspaper this morning. I wil always remember visiting your Grandmother (Aunt Mattie) and Grandfather (Uncle Leonard) and your Mom and Dad at Harwood, WV. Your Dad and my Dad joined the Boomer Methodist Church at the same time. I have a group picture taken of you and me and other children at the Church. Prayers and love to you and family.
