Dear Randy,

So sorry for your loss. I miss seeing you in church, although I must admit I don’t go very often anymore. In fact, when I do go, I don’t seem to know anyone. I remember how we often ran into you at Wendy’s after Saturday night Mass.

Take care of yourself old friend. You always took the time to talk with us old folks and for that, Donald & I thank you.

Our sincere condolences,
Rose Brooks
