Dear Priscilla,

We had seen John's name among the sick on the list in St. John's bulletin, and later, we read his obituary in the Herald. It has been many years since we knew you here in Winfield, but we remember your devotion to one another and know that you are grieving. Please accept our sincere sympathy and love.
