It's that time of the year again....& your sister & brother-in-law miss you as so many others do... I wish you had been here for the Jewish New Year and for all the holidays that are about to arrive-- it -- not the same without you & mom. And Ilkka cannot fix his car without your help! I cannot call you to complain about anything! No one can replace a sibling, a brother.The world has gotten even crazier-perhaps you are in a better place.
We love you,
Your sister, Barbara & ilkka
