Dear Peter and Susan and Family,
We did not know your father (father-in-law, grandfather, husband) but Susan often spoke of him fondly at work.
We are sorry for your loss and want you to know that our prayers and thoughts are with you as you grieve the loss of your loved one.
Keep in mind that because God sent his only begotten Son to us at this time of year is why we are able to know that your father (father-in-law, grandfather, husband) is in a special place with Jesus now.
God bless all of you,
