Clearly it is my loss to have not met your grandmother in person.

There is obviously no good time or way for someone whom you care about to pass.

I am so sorry for your loss! At the very least, I want you to know that I am here and care.

You have all of your wonderful memories of your grandmother...what a rich, yet priceless, inheritance she has bestowed!
