Dear Carol,
I was so sad to learn of your brothers passing. I did not know him personally however my sister and mother worked at Trafari's and mom always spoke of him highly. It was not long ago that my sister and I met you at the bingo and we talked about John at that time. Please accept my sincere sympathies on your loss and know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I wish that I had know John as well. My mom must be catching up with him now that they are both in heaven. May God Bless you and your family and give you strength though this most sorrowful time.
