Uncle Cleo and Family,
Our deepest sympathy on the loss of Aunt Edith. She was a great lady and I have such wonderful memories of her. I spent many hours at your house and ate a lot of her cooking and man could she cook. It didn't matter how many were at the table there was always enough. I know you will all miss her so very much but I am sure she is already sitting at the table with Grandma Beauchamp and Grandma Benoit playing cards.

Love Diane, Bryan, Emily and Michael Hanson
