Dear Cheryl & Deb,

We are sending our condolences on the loss of your mom. Now all the card players are together again. I remember all the fun your parents and mine had on those card nights. Where did all the time go? Your mom was a very special lady, lots of fun. I miss all of them. I am lucky also to have good friends to have good times with. I am sorry I couldn't attend the services. I have been disabled for a few years, in a wheelchair and it is difficult to get out early in the morning. But I was praying with you all. I don't have your addresses, but I am hoping the funeral home lets me have them. Our love and prayers are with you.
Sincerely with love,
Margie (Kofarago) & Fred Thomas
