Dear Bev & family:

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. Although I have only been one of your neighbors for 5 years, in that short time it was easy to see what a special man Ted was. He always had a good word to say to anyone he greeted and it was a pleasure to have known him in this short time. Bev, I know you and your family have been through alot in less than one year, having lost your daughter and now your husband of 57 years, but please know that you are never alone and you have many friends who care and are thinking of you. If you ever need anything I'm just a few doors away. With heartfelt sympathy,
