Dana, Niki and Roni,
My heart goes out to you as you are dealing with this loss. Girls, your Dad was funny and smart and helped keep us all in line during our work in the theater during college. He was never happier than when he was with you and your Mom.

My love to you all.

Dear Dana,
This is not the news I expect to hear about good friends I have met and whose memory I cherish. I am so sorry for you and your daughters' loss. My wife Gerry and I will pray that you have the strength to carry on and help your daughters cope with a tragedy that is unexplainable. Be sure to tell them when they go to bed at night to say good night to their dad and tell him they love him, because he will always be watching them and love them and you.

God bless you.
