Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry for your loss.

Ray Abernathy, you shined a beacon of light and hope on the everyday struggles of people wherever you worked. May your family and loved ones take comfort in knowing that you fought the good fight.

We will miss him. Love to you.

We are so sorry for your loss. May God keep fast hold of you with his right hand during this difficult time.

May God strengthen you during this difficult time-

My condolence to the family for the loss of your loved one, may you have comfort in the happy memories.

Ray, thinking about what's next.

Ray and I were friends through thick and thin. Ray Abernathy was a good man, funny, kind, thoughtful, irascible and there when you needed. I miss Ray.

Ray and I were friends as teenagers, and it doesn't surprise me at all to learn what a fine man he was. He was special then, sweet and kind and earnest and a dear boy. I wish you all had had his wonderful self for years longer.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
