Dear Phillis,

Please accept our heartfelt sympathies from the Mee families. Dad always enjoyed Tom's company and the years they worked together at Crucible. As you know, Mom struggles daily with her own Parkinson's problems, so this has touched her in a very personal way. Prayers and God's blessings to you and your family.
