Dear Bonnie and family:
Sorry not to be able to attend the service yesterday, but wish to extend my condolences. Evelyn and I last spoke a few years ago at the memorial service for the mother of another friend. I will remember the kind words she expressed to me on that occasion. Evelyn was a wonderful person and I admired her sensible and caring attitude . Please accept my heartfelt warm wishes for you and your family. May your fond memories and love sustain you during this difficult time.
Warm regards, Debbie
