DEAR COUSINS;
SO VERY SORRY TO HEAR NEWS OF AUNT RUTHS DEATH. SHE WAS A SPECIAL LADY AND WILL BE MISSED BY MANY PEOPLE.
I WILL ALWAYS CHERISH MY MEMORY OF THE TIMES I WAS STAYING WITH GRANDMA CARR FOLLOWING HER CATARACT SURGERY WHEN YOUR MOM WOULD TAKE ME FOR 'supplies' IN HER VW BEETLE--THESE TRIPS WERE A HOOT.

Dear Alice, Rose, Patricia, Junior, and Sue,
I was so sorry to hear of your mother's death, and really wish I could be there to see all of you. But for now, I will have to send my condolences to you this way. Your family has always been a part of our family, and will always be very fondly remembered. I often think of our childhood memories and how good we really had it, as they say! Thanks for all those memories, and I really hope things will go more smoothly for you each day.
My best to each one of you,
Larry Harris
