Dear Tom, Laurel and Ellen, I was surprised and saddened to hear of the passing of your mother. Your mom and dad meant a lot to my mom and dad, and I have many memories of the laughter, joy and friendship present whenever Doug and Phyllis came to visit. Our parents had such a good time together and had so many adventures with their dear friends! Your mom talked about her beloved children all the time, and even though we rarely spent real time with you, we felt like we knew you well. Please accept my condolences. I know she will be greatly missed.
