Carlton
I am so sad to learn about the loss of your Mom. You may remember me, I am the President of The Breakers Hotel in Palm Beach and I would often see you and your Mom together around town or the hotel property. We only met a few times but each time you and your Mom left an impression on me: she being so kind and always doting over you; and you being such a gentleman and so pleasant. I pray that God who gives you hope will keep you happy as you believe in him, especially in this incredibly difficult time. With kind regards and sympathies, Paul Leone
