We miss you!!!

Dear Darrin, I am deeply saddened.. I know there are no words that can make it better or lessen your grief. The point is, like everything else in life, we can always try, we must try, that is the humanitarian in each of us, it is human-kindness. My deepest sympathy

Darrin,
May time be your friend and loved ones your comfort.
Zach was a neat kid and I loved it when you stopped in to see me.

So sorry for your son's passing. Just heard the news. Hope you are well.

Darrin,
We are so sorry for the loss of Zach. A parent should not have to bury a child. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Darrin,

Please accept my condolences over your loss. May the heartfelt words of concern, love and prayers from your world-wide family comfort you. May you and Zach's family be blessed with the strength to endure this sad moment.

RIP Friend xoxo

Darrin, words cannot express the sorrow my heart has for you and your family. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time. Know, too, that there is a new star in the heavens watching over us.

Darrin, I'm so very sorry for your loss. I remember a few stories you shared about Zach when we worked together. I wish I had some magic words to comfort you at this time but unfortunately I don't. Please know you, your family and Zach are in my thoughts and prayers. Take care my friend.
