Dear Ruth & family,
We were so sorry to read about Al, it sounds like you made your move at the right time and I hope they were happy times for both of you.
We are not coming in to the visitation, we are fighting a bug that I certainly don’t want to spread.
Our sincere sympathy to you and all of the family
Sincerely
Joan & Jim
Ruth, we were so sorry to learn of Al’s death. As you know, Al volunteered for me for over10 years through the London Board of Education ESL adult program. He could always be counted on in every way and was patient, kind and informative in all his dealings with our students. He was especially talented in communicating the value of the life skills component of the course. Al nurtured many students and proudly shared his family experiences with them. London has lost a wonderful and gentle spirit. Our thoughts are with you and your family.
Sincerely.
