What a loss. We spent a lot of time together when we were much younger. I remember it fondly.

Dear Chris and David,

I was so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. She was a real hoot and I enjoyed our conversations over the years. She did not mince words and you always knew where you stood with her-something I very much respected. Matt and I always enjoyed hearing her stories and visiting her lovely home.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to support you during this difficult time.
