Hi Aunt Jo and Jen,
You both have my deepest sympathies and condolences. I was so saddened to hear about Uncle Brookie. He had a great sence of humor and when I visited as a child the house was full of laughter. I enjoyed all of the family get- togethers and picnics in your backyard and also enjoyed visiting gramdmom there. I'll be thinking of you and it was so nice to talk with Jennifer .
With fond memories and warmth,

Love, Karen
