    Dear Cheryl: Please accept our sympathies. It was a shock seeing the e-mail from Charlie. We didn’t know that he had been ill and maybe he hadn’t been sick at all. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Only learned of it today, so we will not be able to come out for the funeral because I have to take the twins to swimming practice tomorrow night. Please excuse our absence. We will be thinking of you. Love ya Cheryl, Kathy and Randy PS: You would have celebrated your 51st anniversary this year (as us), so you have to remember that you had 51 GREAT years together!.
