Not sure what to say?

Matt,
My sympathy to you and your family on the passing of your father. I was glad to know your dad during the time I worked at Country Meadows. Your dad was always so friendly and compassionate to all the other residents. I also enjoyed knowing you and little Eli. May God Bless you and your family. You were a dedicated son.

Dear Vicky
Keeping you and your family in our thoughts at this sad time.

Sending comfort and love your way,

Wayne and family, We are really going to miss your Dad at Country Meadows. He was always so friendly, quick to say a kind word, display a sincere smile and talk to new persons. As a new resident last year he made me feel comfortable. Always helpful with information or who to turn to for help. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. I know your son is having a difficult time understanding what has happened to his Grandad. Love to all of you.

Vicky,
Again my thoughts are with you! Your father sounded like a very intriguing man and like John said, very fortunate to have such a loving family. Take care and we will talk soon.

Much love,
Michelle

Those breakfasts in Rocky River when we shared our misadventures are jewels in my...

Dear Vicky-

We were very sorry to hear of your loss. You are in our thoughts at this very difficult time.

I learned about your father through our conversations about him over the years, and he was obviously cherished and loved by many over his long life. I also remember meeting him along with your extended family at your wedding in 1977. He was a very fortunate man to have such a wonderful family.

My thoughts are with you, Rick, Katy and Mike. I look...

Dear Wayne and Debbie,

I am writing this letter to express deep sorrow for your loss.

I briefly met Jim at your mother’s funeral and remember him as a kind and loving person. I know you loved him very much and will miss him.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you, and we are sharing the burden of this great grief. May God bless you.

With love and sympathy,

You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I know how special your father was to you. He is at peace now and watching over you.

Wayne & Family, I am sorry to hear of this loss. He sounds like a great man with a full life. My prayers and condolences.
Your friend,
John Patrick
