Dear Friday Afternoon Club Friends,

I am sorry for our loss, especially for Don. Barb was a very sweet, witty, affectionate friend.

It will be hard not to become bitter and hateful over this considering the circumstances, but we need to take care of each other so that no one of us falls into that state. Bitterness and hate are truly evil.

Tears and Hugs,
Mark Smiley
