Where do I start? Jamie, you were
correct in saying that we are saddened
by the rest of your family’s presence
across the back fence of our thought.
I remember growing up in Forest Hills
and running the neighbor hood [sic]
with you.

Sincerely, your tragic loss
was a very special freind [sic]
who lit last night a candle,
played your favorite music,
and a quick mind is difficult
at this time. We are sorry to
hear the death of your laughter,
earth a unique tribute realizing
huge smiles on our faces, even
time itself is often untimely.

Quite honestly I never would have made it
through my business classes without a recent dream
of you, Edward, Dennis, all catching up
with Billie Shaw who moved away
back then… Thank God my son
had such a wonderful baseball coach.

dear summer months and sympathy
and Son with a capital “S,” dear

heart and dear magnetic personality,
we are sitting up in heaven thinking

it was. Dear, draw comfort from knowing.
