Dear Ann and Family,

You all are in our thoughts and prayers at this time. Whenever I think of Tito, all of my thoughts lead to funny times and him teasing someone. You two had so much fun together. Keep him in your heart and hang in there. I live right around the corner, so call me if you ever need anything or just want to visit.
Love you all.
Lori, George, and the girls.
