Dear Betty and family; Sorry we are down south and unable to be with you at this time. Jack was one of those fellows you could always rely upon and many conversations with him were of a delight to me in very different types of situations. Betty, you too were always willing to assist me when I needed help and now perhaps these few words will ease your burden just a little. Rest assured we are thinking of you and Jack. Skip and Chrys,
