Dear Connie and Jeannette and Children, I met Lucretia at the Children of Light Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group which had its meetings at the Dominican Priory in River Forest, IL and on the day we met we became good friends along with Betty Reiber who was in charge of the music ministry of the group. We stayed close friends because Lucretia's genuine caring heart is as beautiful or more so, in Heaven with Al as her heart for others was here on earth. I shall miss my friend Lucretia until we meet again. Connie and Jeannette and grandchildren who Lucretia loves so very much, I send my love and sympathy. God bless you all with the courage Lucretia wants you to have with her being away from you now. I love you all. Jeannine Valentino
