Brandy, Brittani, and Bridget,
I am so sorry to hear about your dad. The neighborhood isn't going to be the same without him.
He always seemed to like me, which I appreciated greatly. It's been a little while since he and I have had a conversation, but we had some doozies.
Growing up I was always in awe of his garden, and I've talked with Courtney a lot recently about wanting to make one in my backyard but I knew I would make one as good as his. He put so much effort into it every year.
My aunt Dorothy and I were talking about your dad last year, maybe the year before, she told me she always liked him and he was always very kind to her. She was a tough lady who never had much praise for anybody but she was quick to affirm that she like Petey.
The three of you ladies are in my thoughts, I hope my words can give you some comfort in such a devastating time.
James
