Kim,
I am so sorry for your loss, and was very saddened to hear of your Mother passing. I hope that you, David and the kids will be comforted by God's promise that we will all be reunited in Heaven one day. I think of you often and miss the days at Diamond Hill, you were always one of my favorite teachers with a style of teaching that made me want to learn, and I thank you for that...take care!!!!

The Lotz family,
We are deeply sorry for your family's loss. As neighbors it was always nice to see her, such as when she was walking Rita. Shirley was such a beautiful and strong lady that she will be missed. She must have been a great wife, mother, and grandmother.
If you need any help during this painful time, please don't hesitate to call on your neighbors. We are all here for you.

Dick,
I am very saddened by your loss. I know words are not enough. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
I know how you loved Shirley and I remember you telling me little stories and calling her very faithfully when we were away from the office.
Dick, I just want you to know that I consider you to be one of the biggest influences upon my career. I have done a lot better than the average bear and I often think about how you helped be to grow and strive to do my very best. Your work ethic and habits rubbed off on me. You will always be a cherished friend.
When you feel like it, give me a call. I would like to come see you or go get a burger together. I have been meaning to call and see how you are doing. This really hits home that we do need to get together sometime.
I am in Phoenix this week working and unable to get back until Friday night late and will be unable to be at the funeral. But I will be thinking specifically about you on Thursday.
Again, I hope that you find comfort in the days to come. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
