    Jim, Elizabeth and Reynolds family, I was very saddened to hear of the passing of your mother and wish to express my deepest condolences to you. Your mom was an absolute saint and I have so many great memories of how good she was to me, and to all of us kids growing up in Claymont. I stayed in touch with her for many years through letters and Christmas cards after I joined the Air Force. But I regret that I lost touch with her later on in my career journey. Again, deepest condolences to you and I'd greatly enjoy getting back in touch with you all. Best regards from Colorado Springs, Colorado.
