Dear Fitzwater Family,
I am sorry for your loss. I was a young man starting out in life with a job at B&B Food Market. Dale was one of our food brokers and taught me ways to display and stock product. I was able to speak with Dale at church several weeks ago. We remembered old times and buddies who have gone before us.
May God bless you.

mom (erma) is out of town but other wise she would be at your dads funeral. I'm real sorry for your heartache. My son lives across the street from your old house in those apartments on Nova Street so I've seen your dad often. We will all miss him.
