Dear Greg and Family:

How sad to learn about the passing of your dear son. One can hardly fathom the toll this must be
taking on all of you and the feelings you must be going through. Our words are just poor tools to express at this time. Just know that we are thinking of you and praying for you during this difficult time.

Miss you Andrew. Remembering all the time we spent together. Was thinking today about when you were only a few years old at my first apartment, you sat on the stepstool for hours because you were afraid of the big black ants. Love you and RIP, Aunt Colleen
