To the Family:

My deepest sympathy to the family of Olive C. (Chrysler) Barrett who was the sister of my Aunt Marian (Chrysler) Shoultes. Aunt Marian was a teacher in Newark Valley for many years. Uncle Stacy Shoultes was the brother of my grandfather.

If Mrs. Barrett was anything like her sister, I'm sure you will have many happy memories.
