Dear Ann,



Please accept my deepest sympathy. I was shocked and surprised to learn of Dick's untimely death.

I got to know "Mr. Chatellier" and his wife as an employee of PVIC. Not only was he friendly, but always very helpful. I truly benefited frome his guidance and knowledge while I was employed there. My prayers go out to his family at this difficult time. Sincerely, Steve Hucker
