Dear Joan,
I just happen to come upon the obituary of your brother Tim. I know how close you two were. I just recently lost my brother Stan who graduated from St. Andrew from the class of 1961. Sending my sincere condolences to you and your family. Losing a family member is never easy. My prayers go out to you during this difficult time.
God Bless
