Dear Mrs. Trudeau:
I wish to extend my sympathy to you and your family in this time of sorrow. I have been a patient, off and on of the Doctor’s for twenty one years and feel that I have lost a very dear friend, and I am sure there are many others who feel the same way.
I remain,
Sincerely,
Mrs. Helen M. Stapley
