JOY, WE WERE SO SORRY TO HEAR OF THE PASSING OF YOUR FATHER. HE SPOKE OF YOU OFTEN WHEN HE CAME TO THE VA CLINIC WHERE I WORK AND WE SHARED MANY LAUGHS. LAST MONTH THE ONLY THING HE TALKED ABOUT WAS MAKING IT TO YOUR SONS GRADUATION. HE WAS DETERMINED TO BE THERE AND I HOPE HE WAS. OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
