Dear cousins Donnie and David, and Lena,
I heard of Uncle Don's death a few days after Christmas, as I was away from home visiting my husband's family. It was surprising and upsetting news to be sure. I remember Uncle Don - "Spunk," my dad would call him - with affection and respect. He had such a pleasant disposition. I remember holding hands with him at Grandma Chappel's funeral. Lena, we've never met, but I'm certain you are a special person. I'm so sorry for your loss. You all have my deepest sympathy and you're in my prayers. May God comfort and guide you.
