Dear Friedrich-Hoffman Family,
We share your sadness as yesterday we had a funeral for our son Jason at St. Anthonys Church. In the haste of removing the flowers, someone grabbed a basket that belongs to you. It is from the Braatz, Kloehn, Rotar and Weston Families. It must have been delivered at the same time as our flowers.
We would be happy to get it to you if there is some way we can connect. Please email me at [email protected] if I can assist you.
Sincerely,
Barb Taggart
