[Oe List ...] Bruce Gilles

[Jean Long]

Dear Jack -
Because I have come to know you and the depth and power of your spirit
understanding, I know that your brother, Bruce, was blessed and comforted by
the wisdom you shared with him.  My thoughts are with  you and Judy as your
life journeys are empowered by the end of Bruce's journey on this plane of
existence.

Love to you both,
Jean Long in Denver
