Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry for your lose. Wally was a friend that I often teased with during his hours of volunteer service at St. James and his morning breakfasts with the "cardiac rehab" group. I certainly did not expect to hear of his death so soon. I have been transferred from St. James and will probably not be able to make the wake, but know he and all of you will be remembered in prayer.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
