I was saddened to read about the death of your Mom. My mind raced back to those wonderful years in the old 16th Ward. Corine was so willing to help others. Since the "Burns kids" were nearly the same age as her's I felt a real kinship. I pray that you may all feel the comfort that the gospel brings. I wish I lived close enough to attend and see you all again. Know that my prayers will be with you.
Sincerely, Dallas Hatch

I have known Corine for just a little less than a year, but she was a sweet lady and I will miss her here at Lincoln Court. My condolences to her family.
