Dear Jack,
Thank you for keeping us in touch- on Saturday last, Jim and had the great 
pleasure of visting with the Telfords;
 and greeting Jeanette Stanfield after 28 years!-- another dear collegaue- 
Katrin Ogilvy was also staying with the Telfords.  Katrin and her family 
came over with the Bishops and their family to S'68 on the West side-  dear 
David was very much on our minds at the lunch table.
Grace and peace to you all,
Isobel Bishop.

> bed ridden now, but at home with hospice care.  He is in no pain,
> which the doctors find amazing.  For the most part his mind is alert
> and his spirit is fine.  They are overjoyed with all the cards they
> have received from so many of you.  it is one of the rituals they do
> everyday, reading the cards in the early evening.  Local colleagues,
> including their Sanga group have been adding their care and love for
> both of them in this time.  Please keep both of them in your hearts
