Dear Mrs. Grossman:

Please pardon my intrusion upon you in your overwhelming sorrow but I must [bear ?] my humble tribute of sincere sympathy with you in the loss of an affectionate Father.

Console yourself with the reflection that all is well with him and that he is at peaceful rest and rejoice in the rich legacy of a grand name everywhere honored, which he has left you and your children.

With deepest sympathy and kindest wishes

You and Your Fathers Friend

L. A. Lockwood
