Dear Ruth,

We are so very sorry to hear about Fred, but grateful we had a chance to visit him last month.

His smile was contagious and he always had good things to say about everyone. We will miss our poolside conversations with our drinks in hand. Please do not hesitate to call if you need help with anything.

Again, we offer our condolences and prayers. We will miss our Bay Shore buddy.

With love and prayers.....Marilyn and John Catalano
