What can I say that Russell has not said about the way we both feel over here. All these years that we have been like a family, living right next door, all the fun we used to have in Maine. Claude & I trying to learn how to dive in our old pool, she made it, I never did.
Lots of love,

Al Diane Bobby and all... for once I am actually at a loss for the right thing to say...I have known and loved Claudette since i was a child I just cant imagine her not being next door. My heart breaks for you Al if a life can be measured by how much one is loved while here on earth...her legacy goes off the measuring charts. Al you set a huge example for all of us on what True Love is meant to be. We will Never forget her. I know she left us knowing there was NO bigger love.
