Dear Sue:
Thank you so much for calling me regarding Danny's condition. I appreciate being able to spend a little time with Danny before he passed and hopefully I was able to encourage him. I am proud to call you and Danny friend. Danny is one of those people that you are fortunate to have met while navigating life. As I recall our many conversations, I seem to remember how he always got back to talking about Danny, Melissa, Kathy, Amber, Brant, and Richard and of course you. He loved you all and he was blessed by all of you as he blessed us.

Sincerely,

Jeff
