Dearest Aunt Wilette, Tami and DaNiel,
Man...life. I want to express my sincere condolences. We sure go way back, don't we?! Dan was a good uncle...he could be so funny sometimes (in a dry humor sort of way!)...and so easygoing, and smart! I remember him "showing me the ropes" when I started working at the shipyard back in '85. And those adolescent days I remember when you guys hosted so many fun family get-togethers...they'll never be forgotten and I sure do appreciate them...I think more and more as time goes on! God bless you all.
Sincerely, Bo
