Dear Jean and Family,

So sorry to hear about Whoopie's passing but we know that he is no longer in pain. We had a lot of good times playing 500. It was always so nice to see you two when you would come over to visit grandma (Klein).
All our love.

John, Ruth and Peggy

Dear Jean, Jeff, Dannie and Lori,

I am very sorry to hear about Whoopie's passing. He was certainly one of my all time favorites of Laverne and Agnes's close circle of friends. I will always remember his good cheer, high spirits and many kind
words of encouragement along the way.
