Dear Anne Marie,

We are really sorry to hear about your father and send our condolences to your mum and all your family. It is always hard to know what to say as no words seem adequate on the loss of a loved one. Someone once said to me that we never really lose someone as they remain in our heart and that through time we will remember the good times we shared with them.

Take care.

Ann and Liam
