Carl and family,

Although we've only made contact with you good folks a few years ago, we are saddened by your loss.

We had so much looked forward to the day we could meet Eva in person.

May the Lord bless and keep you in his Grace.

Sincerely, Ed & Marie

My husband, Walt, and I would like to express our condolences to the Gee family. As a former Rensselaerite, I remember Carl delivering groceries for Mike Garagosian. My husband and I were also both band students of Ed, me at VR Elementary School and then Walt at AuSable Forks HS. We dicovered after marrying that we shared a beloved music teacher!
