Not sure what to say?

Dear Tina, Leonard, Todd and Alex, I did not know Grant very well as I met him once or twice at Beryl´s home. As you have experienced, life will never be the same; there are happy days and very sad days. However,going forward with happy memories would be a tribute to Grant and I´m sure that is what he would want for his family. With my own experience, going forward, I try to concentrate on the happy times with my husband and not the sad. Stay well !

Dear Tina, Leonard, Todd and Alex, I´m sorry i cannot add to the message I sent previously as I only met Grant once or twice through Beryl at her home. I only know through my own experience of my husband´s death which you know about that there are good days and sad days. As you know, your lives will never be the same but I´m sure your beloved son and brother would want you to move forward with remembrances of the happy times you shared as a family. Most sincerely, Lou Hoover

Dear Leonard and Tina, You may remember I was Beryls friend. You may remember my situation which was similar to yours. Know this, pain never leaves but takes a different form, which is a blessing. Stay strong .

Very Sorry for your loss. It is unimaginable and heartbreaking. I am sure that the wonderful memories you all have of him will help ease the pain in time.

Dear Leonard & Family-
I was greatly saddened to hear of your son's death. I can only hope that his memory will be with you forever as a consolation.

Even though I NEVER knew Grant, I feel very bad for you all and want to give my sympathy. It is so heartbreaking and maddening. It is like a nightmare we can't wake up from. I heard all about this from the news. I heard all the good things about him, he was kind to people and never cruel! I love people. He probably would've been really good to me. It made me sad and mad just hearing about it. I think about you guys every now and then. He will always be in our hearts forever! I am...

Dear Tina,.Leonard and Family -

Judy Seiler sent me the notice of your son's untimely and horrific death. I am shedding tears for you and my heart is breaking over the immense sorrow you are suffering. Life is so fragile and can change in an instant. I will be sending you a card, but wanted to let you know that you are in my deepest thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely, Kay Herbig
