Dear Simpson family,
I am sorry to hear about your great loss. As the days pass, missing "William" will get greater at times but with the many prayers and thoughts from all will help you get through the difficult days ahead.
May the God who "binds up the brokenhearted" comforts all who mourn and sustain your family.
