I would like to express my deepest sympathy to Mrs. MacDonald (Rose) and all of the "kids" and the rest of the MacDonald family. My parents and I lived directly across the street for over 20 years. Mr. MacDonald was one of the nicest people you could ever meet and treated us in a first-class manner. The world could use a lot more people like him.

I am so sorry for your loss; I wish this could be a better time for you. When my dad passed away it left such a hole in my heart; but the outpouring of feelings and support from friends and acquaintances somehow made it all bearable. I hope that you're knowing that you have love from your family and support from your friends and people at the museum will help you through this time as well.
