Mrs. Jarratt,
I just want to tell you how sorry I am for your loss of your husband of many years.
Growing up as your neighbor, I remember Mr. Jarratt as a nice man who gave us rides to our little league ball games, and allowed our band to practice is your living room.

Danny, Bob, & Kieth,
Having been through this myself, I know the loss you feel. I also know he will be with you always in your thoughts, and throughout the rest of your lives, you will receive subtle reminders of the life you shared with him, especially through your children and grandchildren.
Please accept my condolences,
J.T. Britt
