Dear Aldous Family:
I would like to express my sincere sympathy and sorrow in the loss of Jared. Jared and I worked together a few years ago and he was one of the most respectful and kind young men I have ever met. I truly understand the sorrow that you feel and have experienced it in my own life. Always remember the special things about Jared. That smile that he gave, his laughter, the fun times that you shared, his love for the outdoors. May God give you strength and comfort in the coming days and you will be in our prayers.
