Dear Stuart and Family,

I so enjoyed Joan. She always made me laugh. She was amusing and intelligent. And Stuart, the two of you were like George Burns and Gracie Allen. I am only sorry we did not have more opportunities to meet over recent years. My sincerest sympathy go out to you all. She will always be remembered in our hearts. With fond and sincere thoughts.
