Not sure what to say?

To Everyone In The Goudreau Family: Please accept my deepest sympathies and condolences at this time.I didn't know Mr.Goudreau very well,but he was always polite to me.A couple of years ago,after one of those big winter blizzards,I was shoveling snow out of the back of my Mom's truck,and he was walking by and asked why we didn't put the truck in the garage.I told him that the garage was full,and I don't think he quite believed me,but we both had a good laugh about it.I hope his Spirit will...

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. God Bless,

Offering our deepest condolences at this difficult time.
