Aunt Ruth and family - I know I have never met any of you...and I am sorry about that. Tommy came to my dad's memorial service - Frank DeVoy and I did spend time with Uncle Tommy. He is loved by many. Love does not die. Love stays alive. All our love for him will last forever. I am so sorry. Take good care of yourselves. I am thinking of all of you. Your niece and cousin, Betty DeVoy
