Dear David, Susie and Sarah,

Frosty, Ryan and I are greatly saddened to hear about Heather's passing. While it has been many years since we last saw each other (I recall that it was just after the girls were born) I have often thought of you and wondered how you are getting along. As I try to write this message, I am struggling to find words to describe how we feel and hope that we can be in contact with each other at a later date. We are so sorry for your loss.
