Dear Susan and Cady,
I am so very sorry for your loss. Seeing your father, grandfather really breaks my heart, though I know his faith is strong and he is relieved for Shirley. From the photos I saw, I tried to know her a little bit, though most of what I can imagine of her is from knowing the two of you. Please know I think of you with great empathy.
Love,
Gwen
