Rick and Family,

I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved father, husband, grandfather and friend.

Although we know that he is at peace, it still is hard to experience the void that his leaving creates.

My deepest sympathy and prayers for all of you today and in the future.

If I can be of any help, please let me know.
