Dear {Great} Uncle Theo,
I remember going to Great Grandma Rasmussen's to visit you and her and you'd give Chadÿ and I those little rubber coin pouches full of pennies. I remember your big booming voice that could fill a room and your hearty laugh that went with it. You worked the earth as a farmer, and now while your body returns to it, I hope that you find peace in heaven and that all of your other brothers and sisters who have preceded you in death welcome you in everlasting life.
