Dear Kay,
My condolences on the death of your father. It sounds like he was a wonderful man, very active in his church and community. From working with you at MSC, I know he raised a very nice daughter. My deepest sympathy to you and your family.

Dear Mrs Sopron and Family,
I am so very sorry to hear of Paul's passing. Paul and I worked together for many years as Trade Tape coordinators for Dun and Bradstreet. Paul was such a sweet man. My prayers are with you and your family.

Mary Kay, Debbie, John and Kay, and families--

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I didn't find out until it was too late to come down for the funeral. Hopefully we can visit soon (and not for a funeral, which seems to be the only times we see your family in the last couple of years); we plan to visit Judy, Woody and Aunt D for the holidays. Love and Care, the Kahley's

Sorry i can't be there tonight for the wake, since i'm under the weather, I don't want anyone to catch my cold. My prayers are for the whole family. He was a very dear person. I taught me my first bowling lesson. He always said hello to me when I was walking by and ask me to tell my parents hello. God Bless you and everybody in the immediate family. He will be dearly missed.

Dear Mrs. Sop, Sop, John, and Kay (and all family), I can't tell you how sad I was to hear of Mr. Sop's passing. He will always be remembered in my heart and our family's thoughts and prayers are with you all right now. Dave will miss chatting with him about golf and bowling, and I will miss the twinkle in his eye.

Dearest Sopron Family:

I am a work colleague of Joe Sopron. I am saddened about the news of Paul and my thoughts and prayers are with everyone in the family and friends at this time of reflection and deep faith in our Lord's love and purpose for all of us.

Dearest Mary Kay, Deb, Johnny and Kay, As you well know there are no words to express sorrow to you all. The love of one so dear is deep. I will foundly remember that Paul (Dad) always spoke clearly, and I loved that about him. He was true to the core, not to be hard, but he could not be fake. Paul give Moe a hand up when he was young and Moe never forgot that. Paul so loved little children, and spoke to them as the little people that they are. A stand up gentleman always. Mary Kay I believe that you are one of the few who meet your prince and lived happily ever after. Today and always, Joannie
