Dear Aunt Marg,
We received the sad news from Pat Goulet, of Uncle Don’s passing. Our
sincere condolences to you, Elaine, Linda, Diane, and family. There is
never enough time, even when we are old there is much to talk about and
many memories to re-visit. Although I didn’t spend a lot of time with Uncle
Don, I did feel that there was a Thorsell connection when we spoke. As
you know, I learned more about my ‘Western relatives’ after Gramma
Thorsell asked Maggie and I to keep an eye on ‘young Alan’ those many
years ago. Many visits out west to be with Loren and Audrey, helped to
connect the family history and make me aware of my many Thorsell
relatives. I have attached a couple of pictures, some taken when Maggie
& I hosted Loren & Audrey’s 50th Wedding anniversary. Another one was
given to us by Gramma Thorsell. Time speeds along so quickly and as an
80 year old, I’m experiencing its
passage faster than I wish - Oh
the questions I wish I had
asked!
Please know that our thoughts
and prayers are with you and
your family as you journey
through this sad and heart-
tugging time.
Love,
David, Maggie, Karen, Laura,
Steve, and families.
