Dear Jean and family
I am so sorry to read of Larry's death and so glad that I was able to talk with you and Larry a week ago.
My sister told me of his passing on the phone this morning and Roger Wallace (Sara Wray's husband) just sent me the obit. David and family are with me in TN and unable to be with you at this difficult time.
