Dear Gertrude and Family,
I am in Korea with my daughter Jill (she is on a Fulbright Fellowship here) and just read the passing of your beloved husband, Erv. He was a real gem. My parents and Erv always teased about the "tips" he collected at my parents wedding in 1939. I am truly sorry for your loss.
