Dear Obitz Family:

I am sorry to hear of Albert's passing. When we were kids we played little league and were classmates in Hunlock Elementary. As the years passed, we drifted apart, but our friendship still remained, even though we haven't seen each other in many years. He always had the best birthday parties. Albert and his family were really great. He will be missed.

Sincerly yours,

Carl Sutton
