Tommy,I want to thank you for taking me with you and Nina to Georgetown a number of years ago. You gave me a chance to be, as I felt, a part of the two of you and a time to remember. Thank you and my most sympathy to you and family.

Tommy, John & Kent:
I'm so sorry for your loss, but know too that it is a relief of sorts. But I also know that doesn't help the pain too much -- I still remember it all too well! I relish the memories I have of Mrs. Parker and will keep them in a very special place. I regret terribly that I can't be there to see you tonight or tomorrow, but please know my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
Much Love,
Cass
