Dear Ida,
We are so saddened by the news of Alba's death. She was a very special woman to all who knew her. We truly feel that we have lost a member of the family. Alba was so generous and loving, always thinking of others, a true and loyal friend, a gentle soul with a beautiful smile.
We will surely miss her. (Maybe she's with Nancy looking for the heavenly slot machines.)
With sympathy for your loss,
Annette & Lee Packard
