Dear Phog and Mrs. Allen:

I think it is fine the way you friends have come to the
rescue during the greatest loss that has ever come to me.
Rowena and I were a pretty good team, and it is hard to
get going again when the team becomes broken. Her passing
leaves an emptiness that even the years will not be able
to erase, but she left a beacon which will shine always.
Your expression of sympathy is most comforting, and we are
very grateful for your thoughtfulness.

Sincerely yours

ie

Mr. and Mrs. F. C. Allen
