Dear Dave and family,
I was so saddened to hear about the loss of your wife, mother. I wish I could be at her Mass and service but miles keep me apart from alot of my friends in Groton. I know your children are friends of some of my kids. May God bless Ann and all of you and may our Blessed Mother, Mary, watch over you and help you through this trying time.
Love,

Our deepest condolences to all the family and friends.
Losing a loved one is so difficult, needing comfort that only God can truly give.
So because of this, I have placed you on our prayer chain. We might not know all of you,
But God does and he IS the God of all comfort. May you feel our prayers and His comfort.

I think I spent most of my high school years with the French family - I always admired the love that was evident in their home and Ann (Mrs. French to me) was clearly at the heart of it all. My heart goes out to you.
