I am sorry to hear of Barbara's passing. I worked for Barbara for about 4 years just before she retired from Nynex. She was a good woman and was good to me. I liked her.

Dear Bob;

I was sorry to read about your Sister's passing. It's one of the sad things with getting old - more and more of the people that you know are taken away too young. Give my best to everyone.

My sincere condolences,

Geno
