    To Renee, Richard and Brian
    Lorraine and I are so sorry to hear that your Dad has passed away.
    We have been close friends with Jim and Carol for many, many years.
    It was just two years ago that he was here visiting us in Michigan.
    We had many god times with both of your folks and shared many trips with them.
    They have been in our prayers always, and will be in our prayers still.
    Will one of you please get in touch with us as your Dad had our number.
    God be with all of you and we are again full of sorry for losing a very dear and close friend.
