Dear Patsy,
We were so surprised when Ann called to let us know about Homer. We wish we could be there for the visitation and service but Jack has a colonoscopy tomorrow morning, January 5, and we can't miss it.
We are thinking about you and the rest of Homer's family and want to extend our sincere sympathy. We are keeping you in our prayers.
When you are able, we would love to have you come for a visit.
