Not sure what to say?

Dear Susan & Sara,
As the one-year mark of Milt's passing approaches, I want to send a sympathy hug to my two daughters who are still saddened at not having their father in their lives, especially for their children not having a grandfather any longer. It makes me feel like I need to fill both roles but know I can't. Still, I want to be the best Grandma I can to the 4 greatest grandkids - I could not be happier or prouder of my family.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to the family of Milt. May it comfort you to know that so many share your loss. Our daughter Kari went to school at Burnsville with Susan.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Susan, Jeff, Zachary and Hayley,
We are deeply saddened to hear of your father's/grandfather's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
Hugs,
Sark, Lora, Stefanie and Vanessa

We are thinking of you and are so sorry for your loss. Milt was a wonderful man. Prayers and love.

Although I hadn't seen Milt for quite awhile I fondly remember those moments when we did see each other. He was one of the good guys and will surely be missed.

My two daughters, Susan and Sara Jane, lost their father, so am sending this special sympathy message to them, as well as to Myrna, who has been a wonderful step-mother. They each have two children who will not have their grand-father with whom to make any more memories. But they do have Grandma Boonie and Grandma Mernie (plus a couple other grandmas) to help fill the void.

i always referred to milt as (uncle milt), rest assured, he is in good hands.

My sympathy to Milt's family. My late husband and Milt worked together years ago and we became very good friends. Milt was a wonderful man and I have a lot of good memories of times we shared.

Myrna,
I've known Milt nearly 25 years and have to say he is one of a shrinking number of people in our industry that I would have trusted implicitly. There's not much more that needs be said other than, our prayers go out to you for your loss.
