Dear Dave,
Carl and I were saddened to read of your families loss. I was able to enjoy a short friendship with Maddy during our later school years. She was a wonderful person and always seemed to have a smile and good word for everyone. And since you, Dave, were a friend since lst grade, I know that you and Maddy had many years of joy shared with your children and grandchildren.
Please visit your memories often and remember the happiness you shared.
Carl & Beverly Johnson
