Dear Prince Family,

Please know that you are all in my thoughts and my prayers during this time of great sadness. Mr. Prince was a great guy and he will be missed by all that knew him.

Dear Joan,
What a blessing it was the day Joanne and Darren got married. I want to thank you and Tom for accepting her as a daughter. She had suffered such a blow losing her Dad, now she had Tom. We became a large extended family, and as such we are suffering this loss with you. The two "Navy" Dads are watching with pride as we get through---never over---our loss. Love to all of you
