Dorothy Dell, I was so sorry to hear of the death of your husband Jim. I hope this finds you well, though. I remember with deep gratitude the trip you all made to Indy to visit Mommy in the weeks leading up to her death last year. My very best to Doug, Janice Lee and Diane Dell. Please express my sympathy to Jim's daughter.
