Judy, Lori and Maureen, on April 15, 2009, I traveled to Jamesburg to see your Dad, my Uncle George, because I was putting together a family tree for our family. When I could not find him, I returned home, and googled he and your mother, Aunt Millie, only to find that both had passed. When I read that your father had passed away only two weeks before, I was not only heartbroken, but my tears flowed for all of you, because there was never a kinder man, nor a more gentle woman, then your two parents.
It has been many years since we last played as children, but I hope the long wait of knowing one another can come to end. My prayers are with you all.
Your cousin, Skip (John E. Fox, Jr.) My dad was your father's brother John.

Dear Lori and Chip, I was very sorry to see your dad passed away when I came to work first thing Monday. Please accept my deepest sympathies on your loss. If there is anything I can do, please call me. You're in our thoughts and prayers, Lori and Darrin Wainwright and the girls
