Not sure what to say?

Our condolences to the family. We have fond memories of Lavell and the Septer family.

Aunt Lavell the sweetest person in the room. She always had a smile for me and I always appreciated her kindness so much. She will be missed.

My condolences to the family. I went to school with Nolan.
