Dearest Martin Family,
Please accept my deepest sympathies on the falling asleep of your beloved Jeanette.
She always loved bragging about being my baby sitter when we all lived on Chery Street. She never failed to renew our relationship as family when we were together for some occasion in Canton. I will miss her love and warmth in the days ahead as I pray for her eternal rest.
