Dear Duncan, Amy, and Jack
Please know how sorry I was to get that call from Susan with the terrible news of Tom's accidental death. Obviously he was an exceptional young man with a bright future.

I am saddened to know of Tom's death. I did not get to meet him even though we were relatives. His fraternal grandmother is my aunt. My heart grieves for the family and his friends. There are no words to express what a loss this tragedy is to all that knew and loved him.
Duncan and Amy, may God give you peace and comfort now and times to come.

Tom, your spirit lives in our hearts. There's a beeswax candle from NH burning for you here. I hear that you loved bees. May your sweetness be what we remember.

Dear Duncan and Amy,


I am shocked to read the news, I extend my heartful condolences to both of you on the untimely demise of Thomas, may the almighty give you strength to overcome such an immense and irreparable loss.
May his soul rest in peace


respectfully

Dear Amy and Duncan,
