Not sure what to say?

Miss you Tom but you are forever in my thoughts and my heart.

To the Davenport Family,

Please except my sincere condolences in the death of Tom, I am so sad to just find out. I am a former waitress of Canty's along with my late Mother Florence. I have the fondest of memories of Tom and of Canty's. My husband and inlaws were the band there for many years.I would always ask Maureen about him when I ran into her. I am sorry for your loss, may he rest in peace.

Sincerely,

Dear Family of Mr. Thomas Davenport,

Our sincere sympathy and prayers for your comfort and peace during this difficult time of loss and grief.
Our Dad really loved, Thomas and they enjoyed many a happy visit together. Now, two dear friends are together in Heaven with the love of all their family, friends and surrounded by God's heavenly angels and saints. Blessings to you and yours,
With love and sympathy from all the O'Connor Family
