To all the Fitzgerald families:
I was very saddened to hear about Dr. Fitzgerald this week, and now he is back with Mary Cele and watching over all of you as you carry on. This year has been a difficult one I am sure for each one of you. Please know all of you are in my thoughts and prayers during this time. I hope that fond memories of both parents will carry you through this.
God Bless
