Roland, Clifford & Ed,
Sorry to hear about your sister. It is difficult to lose a sibling, especially your only sister. Haven’t seen you fellas in a while, I don’t get to Princeton as often as I used to. Hoped to see Ed at class reunion, but that didn’t quite work out. I think about your family more often these days. I have a grandson in Scouting. Involvement with him and the Pack stirs plenty of nice memories about your family and Scouting activities.
Rest easy knowing Valerie is in the care of our gentle, loving Creator God.
