Mrs. Gardner, Jeannie and Ruthie. This note is only six years late, but I sure hope that y'all receive it. Had totally lost contact with everyone in Muskegon (my fault). So sorry to hear of Mr. Gardner's death. He was gruff, but a really good soul and I thought a lot of him as well as you all. His parents were special also. Love to you all, and if you do receive this and care to my email is jeffcroy@yahoo.com.
Love,

Ruthie, Jean and Joan (Mom),
I was saddened to learn of Dad's death. I'll never forget the wonderful summers at the cottage up north and Uncle Ben's famous fried chicken, or stealing the olives out of his martinis and the way he'd grumble about it, but let us get away with it. Your house was my home away from home and I'll always cherish the memories.
