Dear Ann, Joan and Carla.
What a friend Don was to Joe; forever it seemed, and I appreciated his staying in touch too, after Joe died. Everyone should be so fortunate, to have a friend like him. The world would be a better place if he could be cloned. He was the most optimistic guy I’ve ever known; such a pleasure to be around.
Don never stopped praising the three of you. He so appreciated your care and concern. I know you’ll miss him, as will all his friends. You had him for a long time, but it’s never quite enough, is it?

Ann, the way you and Jim talk about your father, he must have been a wonderful man and I wish I would have met him. Shaun and I send our deepest sympathy.
