Dearest Carmen,

We are so sad to hear about Brucella's passing. Even though you live far away, you are still near and dear to our hearts. We had some grand times on Sunset Lake in Vicksburg Michigan. You were my mom and dad next door. Our thoughts are with you and our hearts are heavy with sadness.
