Dear Dian, John and Peggy,
I am so sorry to hear that Millie has died. She was always so nice and pleasant to talk to. We enjoyed her when we were growing up and later when we would see her at Tall Oaks when we were up at the cottage. Thinking of all of you! With love from Patti and the rest of the Dicke family.

Our sympathies to the Franzmeier family. Sorry, we will not be able to attend the funeral. At my age the cold weather makes it not safe for me to travel. You will be in our thoughts and prayers. I would have liked to send a card but do not have any current addresses of Milly's children.

Love,
