Dear Ron,

We were so sorry to hear of your dad's sudden death. We are so sorry for your lost; I know that Archie really enjoyed his company and the time that they spent playing cads. He always marveled at his great mind. Archie has had three hip surgeries on his right hip so he's been in and out of the hospital and nursing homes. We would have been there had it been possible.

Our love and prayers are with you and your family.
