Dearest Linda and Gina, my heart goes out to you during this time. I enjoyed knowing your Mother she was so wonderful. One of my fondest memories was when I was staying at your house while my folks were out of town and I became very sick. She took care of me like my own Mother would have while you two went to school.
If there is anything I can do for you please don’t hesitate to ask.
I love you!
Many wonderful memories from the years of being friends with Harlan and Bonnie.
Thinking of you at this time, Linda and Gina.
