/Dear Colette, deep condolences on the loss of your mother. I was thinking of you just the other day and of our halcyon days spent
slaving for(he late) Slyne..but the rest of the guys were fun..not a bad gig; I hope these blasts from the past aren't inappropriate; if so, I apologize.
with affection..Irene
