Dearest Mark, David, and all your wonderful
children:
Dianne and I wish you freedom from the pain you feel now, to be replaced with all the
memories of a super character of a Dad.
He and I shared many laughs and memories during the past years, as he gave me the respect of a grownup and peer. It also made the passing of Betty a little bit easier,
even though you all had a lot to carry during
those last few years. We love you so very much, and I have childhood memories like they
were yesterday. Hope to see you all very soon.
