Not sure what to say?

We are saddened by the news, Our prayers are with the entire family as we know how tough it is to lose such a special family member. We haven't seen much of your family lately but we have not forgot all the fun times we spent together. We hope everybody is doing well and we would love to see you all sometime. We will keep you in our prayers. Give Stella our condolences, and tell her we said hello.

Stella, Sandy, Debbie and Marc,
My prayers are with you all during this very trying time, To lose one we love so much is very hard, but what wonderful memories we have of Jock. God Bless you all and Thank You for letting me share in Jocks life.

Aunt Stella, Sandy, Debbie, and Marc,
We cannot adequately convey to you how sad we were when Grandma and then Randy called to give us the news of Uncle Jock's passing. We were aware of his long illness, and although truly sad, we are grateful that he is at peace. Unfortunately, we are unable to attend the service, but we will be there in heart, mind, and spirit. Please know that I love you all so very much, and our thoughts and prayers will be with you in the difficult,...

Stella, Sandy, Debbie,

We are so sorry to learn of your loss. The days ahead will be difficult, but as they pass and your daily routines return, we pray God's peace will fill your hearts and you find comfort in the sweet memories of Jock's life. If there is anything we can do, please call.
Love and prayers.
Dan and Sandi

I was 21 and nervous, Jock was standing behind the bar in front of the register-he hired me with no experience in a Tavern(of course Debbie-we had the Lincoln Inn). I know it took a while but Jock kept me and didn't fire me for some of my dumb mistakes.
