Dear Beth and Johnny: I was very sorry to see that your Dad had died. He was such a very nice man and I know you will miss him tremendously. I remember those good old times at 112 and 115 Harlan Drive. Mom died three years ago almost on this same day, and I miss her so very very much. Please know that I think of you all often and would love to hear from you sometime. Love, Nannette Meyer Cafiero
