Joan,
I'm so sorry to hear about Bob. My mom and Ed had gone to a funeral themselves yesterday and ran into Uncle Johnny. Johnny let them know. We are all so sorry that we were not there last week to show our support.
Know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love Kathy Sirianni

Dear Joan and Family

My deepest sympathy to you. We here at work are all saddened by your husband's death. Even though we all knew how sick he has been it still is very sad news to hear that he has passed. He was still young and could have still lived a long life. As someone who went through this same loss at a very young age I know first hand what a horrible loss this is. If there is anything I can do to help you please do not hesitate to ask. Sometimes just talking can help. You are lucky to have your children and grandchildren and all of you together will help each other. The good memories that you shared will get you through the worse times. It will also help you to know he is no longer suffering. May God grant him peace.

Take care and know we are all here for you.

With heartfelt sympathy

Maria
