I am Mrs. Katerine Clough, 60 years old, widow. I was married to late Thomas Clough ,who worked with ExxonMobil in London for Twenty-Six years before he died in the year 2007 after a brief illness that lasted only five days. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of US$50 Million in bank. Following my health(Bronchogenic Carcinomas), my Doctor told me that I may not live longer than required due to my health condition. I am looking forward to seeing someone who can use this money in charitable works. More details will be made known to you upon your response.

May God Bless You

Mrs. Katerine Clough
