Dear Edith,

I would like to offer my sympathy to you and your family on the occasion of the death of your Mom, Audrey. I do not believe I ever had the occasion to meet her but one meaning of Audrey's name is "Noble Strength"! I certainly can see this atribute in you her daughter.

I will offer my Mass today for you & your Mom.

Sincerely,

Rev. David Novak
