Dear Hope and Terri,
I´m out of town this week but saw your mom´s obituary. I´m sorry I can´t be there in person today. I realize that I never kept in touch and also that we haven´t seen each other or spoken since Buddy died. But, I hope you know that I always loved your mom, and I still remember how kind she always was to me. She was a very special lady! You have my deepest sympathy. Love always, Luanne
