To the Berti Family:
I was saddened to hear about your mom. She was a sweetheart. I remember many times spending an afternoon visiting with her daughter/my friend Janet at the homestead. You are all in my prayers.

Dear Berti Family,
Just want to let you know I have a beautiful picture of your Mother and Father's wedding. You probably have the same picture. My Mother Florence Pacula was a bridesmaid in the picture. I'm sure you have the original picture, but I am writing just in case you don't.
