Our deepest Sympathy
Biff and Jane,
It was with great sadness I read about the passing of your Mom. I have many fond memories of staying at your house in the summer and the vacations to the mountains with the two families. I still have the watercolor covered bridge paintings she gave us for a wedding present. We will be keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. She was a wonderful woman and will be missed by all.
