Will always remember our friendship from the early days at the Heights Elementary School thru high school. When we were neighbors on Robin Road, We would walk to high school together, talking politics, cars and our future endeavors. Rest in peace dear friend.

Dear Lynn,

I am so sorry Peter went through so much suffering and wish to express my condolences on your loss. I asked Debbie if she thought I should come, but she thought it best I didn't make the trip. I'm glad she's there with you to help.

Please also express my sympathy to your children.

With love,

Doris~
