Dearest Pete, Mary Jane/Arnie and family,
I have such fond memories for many years of your wonderful wife/mother/grandmother/ggmother. She was a wonderful friend to my godmother, Aunt Gladys, my grandparents Olive and Bill Seccombe, and to my mother, Ann Otto Murphy and my dad and to Bud Murphy, my stepfather. Her hospitality, willingness to give of herself as a volunteer, skill as a wife and mother, and humor were just a few of the many things we all appreciated about her. Unfortunately I am in Florida and will not be able to attend the memorial service. As you know, I am the last surviving member of our small family, but know that through me we all mourn your great loss and pray for your peace and comfort. With love, Susie
