Dear Eichorn Family,My condolences to each and every one of you. I knew Jeff from Abbott, and would talk to him almost every day. He loved each and everyone of you, and would talk of you often. I am sorry he didn't get to make the Grand Canyon, but I believe he has the perfect view of it now. I hope you all get to make the trip in his memory. My love and prayers are with you all.
