Not sure what to say?

Dear Mary,

I was saddened to hear of your loss. You may not remember me but I am a (now) old-time Berea Community Center member. Got an email from Rich Piazza and he mentioned your loss. Again, my condolences.

Dear Mary,
We are still in Florida and also will be out of town on 6/21st so we can't give you our deepest sympathy in person. You and Dick have always made the NASA get togethers so special.
Our love, condolences, and prayers are with you and the girls.

My deepest sympathies are with you all. I will always treasure the memories of the times Dick and I had working taogether at NASA and in particular the classes we attended together at Baldwin Wallace College. Dick certainly was always kind, gentle and a pleasure to be with. A wonderful person who will truly be missed.

We will always remember the parties at your house with Marianne Sandrock!
Deepest sympathy.

Dear Mr. Ashbrook, Thanks for all the childhood memories. The open houses at your pool, the sled riding hill and the swing over the valley. Seeing you at the fall festivals in the metro parks in years past, playing with your band. Again, thanks for the memories.

I will always remember Dick as a wonderfully kind and gentle soul. My deepest sympathies are with all of you.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Please accept our deepest sympathies.
