Not sure what to say?

George and family,
Please accept my prayers and sympathy on the death of your mother. Though I never met her, I recall the many stories Fr. Frank Carey, SJ, would tell of her as he returned from visits to her home in Chacago. Now the two of them can resume their lively conversations.

Wendt Family
My sincere condolences to all.
I was out of town with at the time and returned to the news.
What a wonderful mother you had. She was always giving and finding time to ask those question to know that she was connected. What a true blessing to have someone like her come into our lives.
One of my first introductions on the block was with your mom by my mom. She assured my mother that she would watch over our family (like I needed another mom watching my every...

Dear Wendt Family,
We were so sorry to hear of your loss. My Mom, Marcella Breternitz Condon was one of the "sixth grade girlfriends." They attended grade school and high school. My mom also took credit for fixing up your parents at a dance. As George's fame grew, mom would recognize your mom's spark and humor in him. George, if you recalled a wildly dressed woman in any of your audiences, that was us. My mom and the girlfriends so enjoyed your mom. There has to be one hell of a...

Paul,
I am so very sorry to hear of your Moms passing. I have found very few words have much impact at a time of tremendous grief. The one word that does last is love. Your love, your Mom's love and all the love from family and friends, that is wahat will carry you through!
Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us.
St. John the Baptist De La Salle, pray for us.
Live Jesus in our hearts forever.

Dear Marti, Nancy ,Tom, and all the family,

Please know of my deepest sympathy and prayerful support as you hand your mom/grandmom/great grandmom Nana back to the Lord she loved so much. I'm sorry I can't be there in person. I will offer mass for her here in Paris tomorrow on the Feast of St. Ignatius -- she was such a great friend of the Jesuits! Now she and Fr. Carey can continue their conversations and laughs from 50 years ago.
In Christ, Brian Paulson, S.J.

My deepest sympathies to the entire Wendt clan. Loret was very special to me and my family. A family party wasn't complete without her! Her friendship with my nana was amazing. Her sense of humor was one of my favorite things about her. I will truly miss her, but I know that she's in heaven telling dirty jokes to my dad and having a ball!
