Bob and Debbie,
I am so sorry about your dad. I never really worked with him, but I ran into him in a waiting room at a medical office somewhere about a decade ago. We had a nice talk and talked about you two. The good ol' days...
May he rest peacefully.

Sending condolences to Don and Betty's family loss of both parents is difficult. I was Dons secretary when located in Utica. He was fair and honest man and liked by many. Sending my very deep sympathy.
