  3. Dear Ronnie & Pat:

    I was sorry to hear of your dad’s death and wanted you guys to know I am thinking of you. I remember talking and sharing some of his life with you while I was at Viola and knew he had his ups and downs and you guys were trying to help him.

    My thoughts and prayers are with you. I hope you both are doing well yourselves.

    Love,

    Kathy
