"Kathy, we are so sorry for your loss. I have many memories of David that go back to when I taught him in school at Dist. #47. Also enjoyed you both when you came to get plants both at our greenhouse and in West Point. Let your memories bring you smiles, your family and friends give you comfort and God grant you peace.
We are also sorry to hear of the passing of Laura Lee.
Our deepest sympathy to you."
