Dear Tom,

I was so sorry to hear about your father's passing. I actually saw him, in passing, a few years ago, when I was visiting a home care patient just down the street from him, before he moved to Amelia. Thought about you and wondered about him just last month, when the class of '68 had our re-union.

God Bless.

Dear Tom,

I was sorry to hear that your dad passed on. I never had the opportunity to meet him personally, yet by knowing you I feel sure your dad was a strong and determined person. He will surely live on through all those whose lives he touched. My family's thoughts and prayers are with your family as you celebrate your dad's life and mourn his passing.

With deepest condolences,
