Not sure what to say?

Dear Joann, may you know that I am thinking about you and your family during this difficult time. As they say, time will help heal the sorrow. With much love and sympathy!

Dear Marge, Diane, Claudia and JoAnn, I am so sorry for your loss and ours. Mitch was one of my favorites and he lifted my spirits EVERY TIME I saw him. I know how hard it is to loose a parent my dear cousins and I pray for your comfort and peace. Love to you all. Becca Sue Rowland Hines

Marge,
I am so grateful for the privilege of knowing and serving with Brother Dent. He was always so precise and conscientious as he kept our ward's finances in order. I appreciated his support and patience as I learned. I admired him for his fine example and humble attitude. Thank you for your friendship and many kindnesses over the years. Your beautiful yard has lifted our spirits. We love you.

It was many years ago; 1972, that we moved from our house at 1027 Cheyenne Street, But Shannon and I loved living in Cannon 4th Ward. It has already been mentioned that your yard at the Dent home had the prettiest flowers around, I especially liked those giant flowers you grew. We really enjoyed the monthly firesides and monthyly parties. It has been a blessing in our lives to have known the Dent family, as well as all the people that lived in Cannon 4th Ward. We will be thinking of you...

Sister Dent, You don't know me but I am your husband's first cousin once removed. My maiden name was Gray and I am the grand daughter of Harold Alma Dent and I knew Virginia quite well. I just wanted to express my sorrow for you and your family, at this very difficult time. This has helped me in times of trial: "Pray hardest when it's hardest to Pray". My prayers will be with you.

I'm so sorry. Remember to laugh in your sorrow. And be grateful you had him as long as you did. What a treasure of memories! Write them down while your all together to get all the perspectives and details you might not otherwise have.

Dear Dent Family,
I feel very blessed and fortunate to have known your sweet husband and dad. He and Marge and your girls will always have a special place in my heart. I pray that you will feel comforted at his passing.
Love,
Sue Ann Yospe Ricks

Dear Marge & Family,
We are so sorry to hear about Mitchell. He always appeared to be in good health. We are out-of-town and are so sorry we cannot be to the funeral. The two of you have always been part of our life, especially as a young child at Mitch's parents home. You were both always so supportive in our times of need and always there. I am so sorry we cannot be there. Please know that you and your family are in our prayers and we will call when we arrive home.
Love,
Tom &...

Oh Gramps, who will fish out the spoon I accidentally dropped in the whipped topping now? You are so loved and missed!
