I am very sorry to hear of cousin Andrew's passing. We had a lot of fun when we were growing up when he would come by my Dad's bookstore and at coming over to our house for dinner. And many more memories from Thanksgiving time.

My thoughts go out to Uncle Steve, Paula, Matthew, and Nicholas.

Dear Paula, Matthew and Nicholas,

I as so unhappy to hear the sad news of Andrew's passing. Although we hadn't seen each other for many years, I remember, for instance, with pleasure our sharing Thanksgiving dinner at Grandma Reid's. I am sorry we lost touch since then, but distances kept us apart. You are in my thoughts at this time of loss.
