Dear Dave,
We were so very sorry to hear about Sue's passing. We really enjoyed the times we spent together in Florida having cocktails, dining out and cruising on your boat. Sue was such a happy passionate person full of life and laughter. She will be dearly missed by her Forida friends. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your entire family Dave.
Kevin and Lillian.
