Mrs. Glaskin,

Please accept my sympathy for your tremendous loss. You have never met me, however, I'm a part of your Daughter Robyn's Mary Kay family. I love Robyn and her family dearly and I know she too is hurting. Please know that I'm praying for Robyn and for you to have the strength you need at this time. Although I never met Robyn's father, her compassion, patience and love for others (especially for my daughter, Jennifer), must have been instilled in her from her wonderful family.
I wish I had words to stengthen you, but I don't. God is Good and will support you as your trust in him.

Daer Nancy,

It was such a sad surprise to see the passing of George in the paper. He had such a dramatic inpact on our company over the early years and became a true friend with our whole family. He was much admired and respected throughout the industry and I was very fortunate to have known him and the opportunity to do business with him as well. Nancy our prayers are with you and your family.I do hope that George can run into my Father, Bill because I know that they will have a lot of fun together.

All My Personal Best,

Dear Nancy and "the girls", Bill and I are sorry for your grief. George was a wonderful neighbor to us down here in Florida. It is a real loss for both of us. If it weren't for George we would never have gotten to know the "Buckeyes", come to realize that Ohio State is the finest university in the world and if you are in a sailboat then you have the best of all the pleasures on Earth. We think most of all we will miss his wonderful smile. Our prayers and thoughts are with you. May your faith, your family and your friends bring you comfort. Many hugs and love, Meghan and Bill
