Not sure what to say?

To the family of Marie Tuohy, I was so sorry to read your sad news. I was Nathaniel's first grade teacher at McKinley School. I remember riding in a hay wagon on a trip to the apple orchard with Nathaniel, his mother, and a very young Conner. Nathaniel's father was my mother's very caring nurse at St. Vincent's Hospital. Your grandmother and mother must have been a beautiful vocalist! Please accept my deepest sympathy.
Sincerely,
Judy Koles
