Dear Bob,
I was very sorry to learn of your loss. My condolences to you and all your family. I was Marsha's classmate at Franklin and I believe at Rocky. I ran into the two of you a year or two ago, but can't recall just when or where. In case you might not remember me I lived in the West End just a block up from the Arsenal Courts as a boy, and sometimes played with you and Paul Perkins and Norm McClellan and others, even though you were all a couple of years older than me. Please accept my sincere sympathy. May Marsha rest in peace. Sincerely, Bob Cook (Moline)
