Dear family of Barbara,

I am so very sorry to hear about Barb.  We had worked together at Williams College and had become good friends.  We used to exchange cards at birthdays and holidays and occasionally when she was still at Williams College, we enjoyed lunch together at a local restaurant.  I had tried to reach Barb when I heard that Al passed away but I wasn’t able to contact anyone.

With my deepest sympathy to Michael and Jean and families.  I will always hold a special place in my heart for Barb; she was a dear friend.
