Dear Sarah,

I am so sorry to hear that Albert has lost his hard fought battle. It is comforting to know that he had you, his loving wife, by his side. He was blessed to have many dear relatives and friends to be there for him, he must have been loved very much.

Although I have not seen Albert in many years we did once share a small part of life's journey when we were just children at Saint Gertudes school. I remember him fondly.

Please accept my sincere condolences at this difficult time.
