CONDOLENCES
So sorry to hear of your father's passing.
Kay & Charles Cole
We are so very sad to learn of your Dad's passing. Art was one of the
most dear people I have ever known - what a privelege each of you have
had to have him as a father. The only consolation is knowing that he is
once again with your Mom.
My sincere sympathy to each of you. Bev Hoffman
