Dear Bill, Bonnie and Family: I was so shocked to read in the paper of Helen’s death. She was a dear lady and was always so kind to Paul and me. She sent cards to Paul in the nursing home for every occasion and we are very grateful for that loving gesture. I am terribly sorry that I cannot attend the service on Saturday. I will be out of town all day and I feel very badly to have to miss it. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you. With our sincere sympathy, Carol and Paul Munson
