Dear Jan and Mark,
Since Lee told me of this tragic event I have not been able to get the thought of this horrible loss out of my mind. He was such a talented your man and so loved by his family; I know you all are missing him already. I pray that you feel the loving embrace of Jesus Christ over the next several days, and can celebrate his life during this grieving time.
It's will deep sadness that I write this message,
