Not sure what to say?

Mary: A friend just told me about your husband's passing....you have my sincere sympathy. It's been many years since we've seen one another, but again, my condolences to you and your family.

My sincere sympathy to Jim's family. I have not seen him in many years, but have wonderful memories of a very nice man.

I am the daughter of Matt Walsh, who thought the world of Jim during his years at Combined. During one or two summers during college I worked with Jim in Personnel and got to know him. Over the years I have thought of him many times and wondered how he and his family were doing. I am so sad to hear of his passing.

My dear father passed away in...

Tom Hayden and I had the pleasure of working with Jim as a furniture supplier when he was at the Aon Corporation. We always enjoyed meeting with him and spending time with him. Ironically, I had just been thinking of Jim earlier this week. We had missed him after he left Aon and will miss him greatly now. Our thoughts are with his family at this time.

Hi,
I was deeply saddened to hear of Jim's passing. Jim and I grew up together in St. Genevieve's parish. He was a friend, a team mate (Sultans)and will be missed by a great many. I've notified several of his friends who are scattered around the country. My sympathy to his family. We mourn with you.

MARY AND FAMILY OUR PRAYERS AND THOUGHTS ARE WITH YOU TODAY.

In loving memory of a dear friend and colleague. Your integrity was only outshined by the kindness of your heart.

Peace Be With You, Dear Friend

To the best boss I ever had and to the best friend I would ever know. A man whose whole life was his family and his friends were an extended part of this life. He will be missed.

Your family is in our prayers.
