My condolences.

I offer my condolences for your great loss. May you gain comfort from the one who can comfort us all.

How sad to hear of Mr. Briggs' passing. Not a visit goes by without my granddaughters asking to watch The Snowman right before their bedtime. Thank you for bringing us much joy, magic, imagination and happiness. I'm certain you and your beloved Snowman are "walking in the air".

Such an incredible writer, his work brought joy to so many. Heartfelt sympathies to the Briggs family, so very sorry for your loss.

It is the end.
The snowman has finally melted.

What an honour it has been to grow up under the wing of your stories.

I'm sad today.
And tomorrow the world will still be turning and another day will begin. Your stories taught us all about endings and this is yours.

So goodnight to you Mr Raymond Briggs. The honour truly was ours.
