    Peggy And Leigh,

    I Was So Saddened To Discover Yesterday, That I Had Missed To Notice Of Your Mother’S Death. I Have Such Fond Memories Of Living Across The Service Rd From You, Having A Restaurant In Your Basement And Being Your Babysitter. I Saw Your Mom At A Funeral Last Year And She Again Told Me The Story Of Our Cat Wilbur Eating Your Thanksgiving Turkey. I Know You Will Miss Her, As I Still Miss My Mom Who Has Been Gone 20 Years.
