Not sure what to say?

Audrey, like Carla Hoiting, I too am just seeing this for the first time. I want you to know my thoughts are with you and I will pray this evening for God´s comfort over you.

Dear Audrey, I have just heard about your loss. I'm not sure if you will even get this, but I hope you do. I send you my condolences and pray that you have been comforted by your sons, and our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. In deep sympathy your friend(s) Carla and Richard.

It is with deep sadness that I just learned of Erik's passing. He was a college friend whom I fondly remember. Erik stood out as an open minded and bright individual. He was true friend to us Canadians who lounged in the coffee shop when we should have been studying. Although contact was lost many years ago, Erik is sadly missed by this Calvin alumni.

I am so sorry for your deep loss. Dr Kooyer was a wonderful person and Physician.

I always enjoyed working with Erik in the care of shared patients. Since I met her m twenty years ago his genuine care for patients and colleagues has always been evident. I´m thankful to have known him. My condolences to his family

So sorry. Erik manifestly spent his life doing love, mercy and community. I think the best way we can honor him is to spend some time thinking about how to emulate him better. So, so sorry. David
