To the Coakley Family,
Please accept my sincere sympathy on the loss of Mr. Ed Coakley. Before Alison left school today she shared the beautiful obituary written about her grandfather. My first thought was what a happy man, he had the biggest smile and as I glanced at Alison and saw her smiling at his picture, I thought the smile will live on in his granddaughter. Please accept my prayers at this sad time.
