Dear Margot,
While I would expect nothing different, this was a beautiful service in a most difficult time. Gunther would be so pleased from the sentiments. From the Psalms to the personal remembrances, a complete picture of the gentle, introspective, hard-working, intelligent Gunther came through loud and clear. Even the weather was super-cooperative! Love, Betty Fashingbauer
