Dear Dawn –
We are so terribly sorry for the loss of your Uncle Dick. Although we only met him a few times, you spoke of him so often that we feel as if we knew him. His capacity for giving and exhibiting love for you was endless. Very few people have someone who they know can invariably be counted on to be there without fail and your Uncle Dick was one of those people – he was always there for you, no matter what you needed, no matter when you needed it. If only everyone could be so fortunate! The world has lost a very special person indeed.
Helen Keller said, “What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.” We love you more than words can say and hope you feel us enveloping you with that love now and always.
Please let Mary know that our prayers are with her as well.
Much love,
Sheila and Bryan Rilenge
