My dear friend Sylvia,
I was so sorry to hear of Bob passing
away, while my family and I were on
vacation. I know he struggled through the last few weeks of life to get you prepared for his passing. You were a
devoted wife and I know he appreciated
you're constant care.
May God be with you during this difficult time. I think of you everyday and keep you in my prayers.
