Dear Marla, I am deeply saddened by the passing of your dad. We were very close and shared lots of good times together. He would always tell me about his visits to you and your kids. We were the best of neighbors sharing all kinds of things and helping each other out over the 25 years that we have lived side by side. I will miss him at lot. He had been sick a long and put up a very good fight. I am so sorry that I could not get down to new haven to see him. If you need any help with anything im right next door. Again im so sorry.
