To the Michaels Family,

Paul and Susie are together again. They were a great couple and good friends of mine. I worked with Susie at West Seneca State School, attended her bridal shower and their wedding. We all had a great time as I know they are having now.

With deepest sympathy,

Ann F. Boquard
