Dear Addie and family,

Mel and I want to express our heartfelt sympathies on your loss. He was an extraordinary man and will be sorely missed. Our families have so many good memories to hold on to of way back. On the other hand, we feel so blessed that we got to visit with you in Atlanta in April on our trip back to Albany, when Bill was looking so well.
