Dear Donald,
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. I have been out on medical leave the last month and am very sorry I could not be there for Ms Murray, you, and the rest of the family during her passing. You were a very dedicated husband to her and I know she loved you very much and looked forward to your visits. I will miss talking with her and seeing her blue eyes and smile when I get back to work. Blessings, Annamarie-Medical Social Worker
