Dear Vida,
I send my sincere condolences in the passing of your brother. I still think of you and your family since we visited a lot during our school years at Bryant School. I think I spent the night sometimes at your house and your family was so friendly and gracious.
Sincerely,
Jeanne Claire Prickett Thorpe
