Chuck,
You will be missed my friend. I will always cherish the wood turtles that you made me. The both are so very special - the one at my work (I can look at every day) and the one at our home - everyone can see when they come to visit.
I am so glad to have meet you in 1999 - you were a good friend to me and I will miss you cards and letters.
You are with my son now in heaven and I can't wait to see you both some day.
Thank you for being my friend and caring about me when I wore my shorts to our meetings. You made me smile and we both needed that then.
My deepest sympathy to your family and friends.
Love, Carol##imported-begin##Carol Olesen##imported-end##

Dear Mr. Towne,
When dad was hospitalized at Madigan you were there to cheer him up and encourage him to get better.
You know I never had a chance to really thank you for your support, your efforts and most of all your willingness to help others.
Now that you are with my dad the memories of friendship continues.
It was an honor to meet you.
Thank you.
