  “My comdolences to Anne and Raymond and Brian. I don't know that you would remember me as it has been 50 years since I've left. Perhaps Anne might.
  I do want to say that I visited Helen a few times over the years and she always accepted me most graciously.
  I do have fond memories of her depth of intelligence.
  Anne, it would be nice to communicate with you
  Respectfully and with warm thoughts
