Dear Auntie Lynne, Rob, Catherine and all of the McLean family,
We all loved Uncle Bill so very much. He was such a wonderful man – so kind, caring and thoughtful. He always was interested to know about what we were doing, and had so many interesting observations and new ways of thinking about whatever we happened to be discussing. I’m so very sorry he’s gone, but I’m thankful we were able to visit with him at the cottage this summer. We miss him already!
Lots of love to all of you,
Julia, Jason, Jeb and Annabelle
