Not sure what to say?

Dear Betty I am so sorry for your loss.
-Aaron from HTS

My sincerest sympathy, Betty.
all my love, Becky Humphrey Myers

Dear Betty,
Sorry to hear of your loss of John. I always enjoyed his sense of humor. I'll never forget the picture of John as a rock star on your refrigerator.

Dear Betty and family,

John was a wonderful friend to me, and I will miss him so very much.

My deepest sympathy goes out to you upon your great loss of this generous and loving man from whom I learned how to be a better man.

Dearest Betty,
So sorry for the loss of John. Thanks for sharing him with so many as he was a charming and witty fellow. From his teaching at BRCC to our shared trips to NYC, I am so happy to know you both.
Sharing some good thoughts of John is easy:
1. During evening classes of accounting at BRCC, he would bring us "Double Stuff Oreo" cookies to keep us lively during class! That extra treat of chocolate was a treat for us, but him too.
2. Thank you for all the entertainment on...

Dear Betty,
Dean and I wish to extend our deepest sympathies to you and your family during this difficult time. We have such wonderful memories of John.
It was always such a treat when John came into the shop. Especially for me, because I usually got a new book but always got an entertaining tale! I miss him already and think of you both often. He was a wonderful man and we wish you eventual peace and comfort.

Dear Mr Calabria's Family,

Please accept my sincere condolences. I was one of many students that he taught at BRCC. He was a fantastic teacher and left a real impression on me. He will live on through all of the lives that he touched for we are better people for knowing him.
