Dear Linda & Ken,
While the loss of a loved one is never easy, even when anticipated, it is most certainly the hardest when they are taken from us too soon. Your recent loss of your son Brian who has left us at such a youthful age is certainly in the category of those hard losses for which there is so painful a reminder of what might have been.
We offer our sincere condolence and deepest sympathy on your loss. May the outpouring of sympathy, the kind acts of friends and strangers and the comfort in knowing that your loss is felt by many, help you through this difficult time.
I ask for God's blessings on you an your wonderful family. May you find the courage and the strength to move forward in peace and confidence and in knowing that Brian's life was well-lived .

Yours In Peace,
David & Guyla Romero
