“Dennis and Pat... my condolences on the loss of your mother (Dennis). I remember her well, having pizza at your home when we were kids, and your mother (Dottie) taught me "Moon River" on the guitar. I still love playing that song after all these years. You are in my thoughts and prayers in your loss, as I know what losing our mother is like. Take care and appreciate her life. Your old friend, Jim Joque”
