Dear David, Suzi, Jerry and all Eileen's family,

I send you my deepest sympathy. Eileen was a lovely person whose company I always enjoyed. She was first cousin to my mother Georgina and her sister Mildred. We loved to hear stories of their childhoods with all their cousins Sacramento. I'm so happy we were able to get together and celebrate Eileen's 85th birthday with her at David and Jackie's last July. I hope you all are sustained and comforted by sharing your memories of happy family times. Lots of love, Katie
