Dear Dorsey Family,
Please accept my sympathy for your loss. I did not know until Saturday when I read about Todd in the Herald. Mrs. Barbara and my mother, Helen Miller, were good friends. I have always loved Mrs. Barbara for the kindness and love she showed Mama. Please know that all of you are in my prayers.
