“ Sudie,
I wish I could be there to honor Joe. I remember that he and Kathy were the first ones to arrive at our house after Mom died. He hugged my dad and let him cry. I will never forget Joe for that kindness. I remember Kathy too and you and Susan all there for us. I do wish I could be there with you. You and Joe fought the good fight and peace will flow like a river. God love you, Sudie. ”
