Dear Dan,

Dear Danny,
I enjoyed teaching with your mother for a number of years at the Shaler Area School District. She made going to work fun with her terrific Irish wit. I know you shall miss your mother, but I hope you find the memories of the good times you spent together a comfort.
Most sincerely,
