Not sure what to say?

To the Smith Family,
Please accept our sincerest condolences. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. May Tom rest in the graces of God.

My very deepest sympathies! I am devastated to say the I did not know Tom has passed away until yesterday and was also shocked when I learned that Shirley had also passed. When I started working at Selby Implement Company I was "warned" that Tom could be "difficult" to work with. So ... I started my first day being pretty nervous about how Tom would be to work for. We couldn't have gotten along better! Tom became like a second Dad to me! He was wonderful to work for and I'm so glad I knew him...

Sorry to hear about Tom. He was a great man and loved life to the fullest. My sympathy for his family

Surprised to hear of Tom's death--quite sudden! I'm still having a bit of a problem with my knee as the first replacement came apart and had to have a revision, that is, I had to re-do the surgery on the same knee. Because of this, I will not be able to attend his funeral services, but be assured that he, Shirley (who died 4 and 1/2 months ago) and all the family will be in my prayers and Masses.
