Dear Kay,
I was saddened to hear about the passing of Guy. You were good friends when we were here together in Colorado Spings. I missed you at the Pikes Peak Stake reunion. I think about you often. This is my daughter, Diana's email address, so if you reply to this, she can let you know my phone number and address if you would like to get in touch. Again, deepest sympathy on your great loss, hope to hear from you soon.
Love, Bonnie
