Wanda & Todd,

I was saddened to hear of your father and my "uncle Johnny" passing.
Many memories of him (usually with his sidekick uncle Jimmy) at different gatherings always telling jokes and making me laugh so hard.

I regret that I will be out of town on the 19th and unable to share in the celebration of his life. My condolences to you and your families. I wish you peace!
