"Dear Katie and family,
I am so saddened to hear of the passing of your Papa. I didn't have the opportunity to meet him. But, I wonder if Katie's strong work ethic, passion for sports (tennis), and her integrity may be traits she shared with her grandfather. Thinking of you all.
Warmly,
Sue Bouchard"
