Not sure what to say?

Dear June,

I just read about your husbands passing and I want to express my sincerest condolences to you and your family.

Nearly 40 years of marriage is a great accomplishment in these times and speaks of a kind of abiding love you two shared and for which many would be thankful.

Life makes no promises but cherished memories & good friends can often ease the burden of its yoke.

Alas, time is unremitting in its consequences. So, I hope this note...

Debbie,

Sad to hear the loss of your Father. Know I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

Bill served with my father, Sgt. Mike Kramer, on the Berea Police Department. The Kramer family sends its condolences.

Bill, you will be missed.

The first two months of my law enforcement career were spent sitting in Lt. Lepperts office reading stacks of reports that he kept giving me. I thought it was nonsense until I came to understand that accurate, professional police reports were as important to the police mission as the other, more glamorous facets of
law enforcement.
He was good man.

It saddens me to learn of Bill's passing. Bill was my first shift sergeant on the PD and later our lieutenant. Many wonderful memories. To you, June and his children, my prayers and deepest condolences.
