John,
So sorry that I could not get up to see Julie before she passed. My deepest symphony to you and the rest of her family. There are so many good memories that I have of Julie, both at work and away, especially away from work. I enjoyed every visit I had with you here and back in Wisconsin. God be with you and yours.
