Kathy, Joan, Jimmy and all,
My deepest condolences and sympathy at the loss of your mom, my Aunt Marian. She was such a kind and caring lady, with more than a touch of the "Winkler wit," just like my mom. I hope the card that I sent a while back has reached you all, and I regret that I was unable to be in Pittsburgh for the memorial gathering. God bless you and comfort you at this time.
