Pat: I am so sorry to hear of your wife's injury and cancellation on going to the show. I was looking forward to seeing you this year. Regards and hope her recovery goes well. John
Hi John,
Diane and I very much appreciate your warm wishes for a successful recovery. Her recovery is progressing nicely, but it is a slow process.
I will miss seeing you in Chicago as well. I was looking forward to seeing many friends in Chicago this year, but I was especially eager to see and visit with you and Mary. Since I cannot attend the show, it is up to you to have enough fun for both of us!
Again, thanks for the warm wishes. Have a great show and a safe trip.
Warmest personal regards,
Pat
