Aunt Bertha, So sorry to hear about Uncle Larry. Being best friends with Jamie, ‘ aunt’ and ‘ uncle’ were the only way I knew you by and called you both. He was such a very sweet man and I will always remember the big smile on his face. You and your family are in my prayers. May God bless you now and in the days ahead. With love, Lori
