David, Jamie, & Laura, I am sorry I was unable to attend your aunt’s funeral. Since I visited your mom and dad often, I would see your Aunt Marjorie and grandmother too. They were always very pleasant, and I enjoyed hearing their stories about traveling to Scotland and other countries.
My deepest sympathy to you and your family.
