Dear Aunt Helen,

We send our sincere sympathy to you and your family. We were so sorry to hear about Uncle Howard. He was such a warm and generous man. It must be so difficult for you right now. We are all so glad to have seen Uncle Howard on your recent trip...We will always remember his kindness, his backyard barbecues and playing cards. We have had so many wonderful holiday dinners at your house...and it won't be the same now without Uncle Howard. We especially enjoyed all the Christmas pictures of both Helen and Howard in the mountains of Arizona. What wonderful memories we will all have of his full life.

We are all here for you.... in prayer, by phone, by visit....

You are meaningful to our lives.

Love,

Debbie, Sean & Katrina
