Dear Rett,
I'm the mother of Walter Kartman, Jonah and Katherine' friend, and I met you and John at their wedding. I was so sorry to hear that John had died. My husband Marc and I offer our deepest condolences to you and your family.

Michael, I am so sorry to you and your family for your loss. John must have been a good man to have a son like you. His hard work and decency certainly come through. I'm heartened that your kids knew him, and that his love will always exist in your heart.
