Dear Raj and Jill,

I was so sorry to learn about the loss of Raj's mother. This is a very difficult time, losing both parents over a short period. It is a very different feeling when both your parents are gone. I understand.

Though I have only known you, Raj, for a very short time - - - I can tell what a special person you are. So I know that your mother had to be a very special lady.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May you...

To the Upadhyaya family:

My deepest sympathies to you during this difficult time. Your mother was such a beautiful person inside an out. Growing up with Ram I remember her well. Not only was she kind and friendly, but also always had a genuine smile on her face. Please know how very sorry I am. May happy memories carry you through the sorrow.
