Condolences
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My father was Douglas Dillon's youngest brother John Dillon Jr. I have always wanted to get down there for a visit and wanted to meet your family. I remember Uncle Douglas coming to our house at Frazeysburg when I was a teenager. You have my deepest sympathy.
Sincerely,
John C Dillon
