Kim and Betty,

We are so sorry to hear about your loss. Everything we ever heard about your dad showed us how much he loved the two of you. I was the same age when I lost my dad, so if there is anything at all I can do to comfort you I am just a phone call away. Please lean on your friends and family to comfort you and to get you through this time.
