I was saddened to hear about Uncle Dan's passing. I remember so

Dear family,

I am sorry for your loss. Uncle Dan leaves a wonderful family legacy much to his credit. He will always be special to me. Through the years and our busy lives whenever we met we remembered our connection as Godfather and Godchild. May he rest in peace.

Love, Francie
