    Dear Kay, I am shocked to hear of Jerry's death. I had no idea he was sick when we talked recently. I'm so very sorry for your loss. You two had many good years together as well as hard times that you shared. You set good examples of overcoming tragedy and living life to the fullest. Thank you for that. Love, Jan

    Dear Kay, I was so sorry to hear of Jerry's death. I thought of our days as student nurses and you and Jerry so much in love. You always seemed to be so happy when you were together. Having lost my dear Ted three years ago, I can understand the feelings you are experiencing. My thoughts and prayers will be with you in the days and weeks to come. Love you, Mary-Lou.
