Mrs. Biddinger......I'm not sure you remember me or my family...Donna McBurney. My parents were Jim and Colleen at the bottom of the court. One of your sons is very good friends with our best friends, the Miller's of San Ramon. I remember both of you from my childhood, and wish to express my deepest sympathy in the loss of Mr. Biddinger. It is wonderful that you had 64 years together, and I hope you find comfort in your memories. It is my hope that your fond memories will eventually replace your tears with warm smiles.

Most sincerely,

Donna McBurney-White
