Our prayers and love are with you all. Uncle Harvey was a wonderful man, always had a smile and loved to laugh. I loved watching Uncle Harvey play handball! Such an athlete! He will be missed, but leaves us all with such precious memories. I suppose Harvey and Jesus are playing handball now. We love you all and wish you our deepest sympathies.
Dear aunt Ellen we have just received your letter about my uncle's death, we feel really bad and we will miss him so much. In deepest sympathy. God be with you and with your family.
