Janet and Jenny,
This is to convey my sympathy to you upon Mike's passing. My memories of Mike include his devotion to family and the Canastota Fruit Co., his pride of having served his country with the U.S. navy, and the cheerful dinner we shared with Mike and Janet in Rome, N.Y. on the night they informed us of their intention to wed.
