Dear Bob, Barbara & Chuck
I was so sorry to read about your Mother. I became friends with Josephine while working at Rodale Press. She, Helen Korves and I had so much fun going to New York City shopping and to see shows. I loved going to your house in Emmaus, your Father would tell me one joke after another, always keeping us laughing. I have a silk Christmas ornament that I put on my tree every year and I think of your Mother because she brought that back from Hungary as a gift for me. A sweet sweet Lady I will alway keep in my heart. I will be thinking of you and your family today and in the days ahead.
