Dear Tim and family,
I am so very sorry to hear about the loss of your father. Although I never met your Dad, I could tell from the many stories that you told me about him throughout the years that he was a man of great wit,
humor and compassion. Above all, I could tell that he was greatly loved by you and your family. Please know that you are all in my prayers. Much love and blessings.
