Dear Esmond Family,

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Your mom was a very pleasant woman. I met your mother, dad and Paul many years ago up at the lake.

My Condolences,

your mother will live forever in the hearts of those that loved her. What a lovely legacy she has left behind, in her children and grandchildren. I believe she is in a better place, standing with the angels, and watching over you. Please think of the lovely song, The Prayer, by Charlotte Church and Andre Pavorotti, it always gives me comfort.
Frank, I know, in the end when you saw her for the last time. she knew you were there, and that made her smile.
Love Ted and Rita
Again, I am sorry and please call us, if there is anything we can do.
