Dear Tina:
What do you say to a friend who has lost such an important part of their life?
Words are not enough to express how sad we feel for you and your family.
I know that your dad was everything to you and you will miss him terribly, but I hope that you will
find some comfort in knowing how much he loved you also.
Our deepest sympathy to you.
