Dear Caufield Family:

Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you in the passing of your mom. We have fond memories of spending time with she and your dad on many an occasion at The Stadium Club in St. Louis many years ago for business dinners in the 1970's. They were both delightful, and oh so proud of their boys!

God's Blessings to All! Our deepest sympathies.

My condolences to the family. I worked with Mary Lou for many years at Kennedy, and I know she loved her family deeply. She was a good-hearted person, and always willing to support a good cause. I pray that God gives you peace and comfort during your time of loss, and always.
