Dear Kaye & Family -



I was so saddened to read about Nolan's death in the paper--and so surprised that you are living in New Jersey now! (Sorry to have lost touch.) I think about you often and have wondered so many times how you're doing. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.



My love,



Susan

To The Wright Family:



We express our deepest sympathy on the death of Mr. Wright. As you know, we lived across the street from you for over 40 years. We couldn't have asked for more caring, kind, thoughtful, helpful and supportive neighbors than yourselves. Mr. Wright was a hard working, family man who we all loved dearly. We have you in our thoughts and prayers, Mrs. Wright, Jackie, Sandy and Nolan, Jr. God Bless each of you. If you need us, we are just a call away.



Love,



Joyce, Elaine, Gail and Richard
