| We wanted to send our condolescences to your family. My daughter met your son/brother last Wednesday evening by his pond. She is a junior in high school and was taking pictures for a photo class and he walked up to talk with her. He allowed her to take pictures and told her all about the pond and the land around it. We wanted to send him a picture later to say thank you. We will now say thank you to your family for such a nice gesture by your son/brother. |
