Follow up note from Bill King memorial at Rickey's

Following the Bill King memorial at Rickey's I mailed a letter to the King family including our two condolence cards, mrod's poem, and a brief description of the event and the "HOLY TOLEDO" banners we made.  Yesterday in the mail I received a very nice note from Kathleen Lowenthal, Bill King's stepdaughter.  Since it is meant to be for the whole group of us, I thought I'd transcribe it here.  

The front of the card says:  "The family of Bill King acknowledges with grateful appreciation your kind expression of sympathy"

The interior reads:

Dear Jenny,
Thank you so very much for your lovely condolence note and please extend our appreciation to all the others who included cards and kind words with your letter - and especially to Martin Vincent Rodriguez for his wonderful poetic tribute to Bill.  Bill always knew he had the world's greatest and smartest audience.  His fans meant a lot to him.  And your kind words mean a lot to me and my family.

Best Wishes to all of you,

Kathleen Lowenthal
