Dearest Aunt Tots,

Many thoughts and prayers have been with you through this past week and through these many months of sadness as Robert had a long goodbye. Take comfort in the knowledge that Robert is surely in a better place. He was a good man, and thank the Lord for your many happy years together. Lovingly, Ann and Jim
