From Heidi Cook Garrick

Dear Hadley Family,

This is Heidi Cook (Garrick). It has been a long time. Hopefully you remember me. My mom called me earlier this evening and told me about Mark's passing. I am was so sad to hear of your loss. I was in St. George today and would have stayed for the funeral, but my mom didn't read the paper til tonight and I had already left to come home (Riverton, UT). We both felt so bad that we missed the opportunity to attend the funeral and see all of you. We want you all to know that we are thinking of you and praying for you at this difficult time. I have some very special memories of your family and Mark. I came up to Ogden to stay with you many, many years ago, but I still remember it and all the fun I had. Mark used to always say, "Heidi, Heidi" when he would see me. We still laugh about that. He was always so kind to me and made me feel welcome in your home. I feel bad that Anita and I didn't keep in better touch over the years. Anita, I would love to hear from you! Email me sometime. I was so excited to see the picture of your family on the blogspot. You all look great! I wish I could have seen you all. My mom wanted me to let you know that she sends her love and is sorry for missing the funeral. Again, I am sorry for your loss and want you to know that I am thinking of you. Heidi
