I’m truly sorry for your loss. I worked with Dennis as our vendor for many years. He was always very helpful. We had few conversations about his passion for saving racing dogs. I’ll always remember him as a very nice person.
With my deepest sympathy to all the Dawid family,

I would like to express my sincere condolences on the recent passing of Mr.D.
As you know, it was not that long ago that my own father passed away, so I have some idea of what you and your family are going through. No comfort is quite enough to replace the loss.

Please pass my deepest sympathies on to your family.

Very sincerely,

February 19, 2010

I am truly sorry for your loss.
With deepest sympathy,
