Dear Henry,
Although we do not know one another, I want to express my sympathy at the loss of your mother. Your mom worked closely with my mother, Alice Shaver, for decades at American Republic. Elisabeth was always so nice to me. When I was growing up she always sent birthday cards, get well cards and little gifts. I still have these items in my memory box. I have very fond memories of going to your parent's home to celebrate Christmas. I spoke to your mom at Christmas time, as was our usual routine, and had planned to stop and visit. I feel terrible that I never made it there over the holidays this year. May your memories lift you during this difficult time. I'm sorry to lose such a sweet woman, she was one of a kind.
Sincerely,
Penny Dickey
