October 14, 2011
To Chong's familly, I recently learned about Chong's death and I felt saddened by the news. I have always had a special place in my heart for him ever since I got the chance to assist him with his medical problems. Over the years I considered myself as his friend and I am sorry I had not had the cahnce to see him over the last couple of years. He will always be rememebered for being a hard worker, never complaining and always with a ready smile on his face. I know he was very proud of the accomplishments of all his children. To the familly please accept my heartfelt condolesnces.

Heidi,
I am sorry to hear of your recent loss and wanted to express my sincere condolences to you and your family on the recent passing of your father. Rachel, mom, dad, and the kids also send their thoughts and hopes to you and your family at this most difficult of times.
Even though I did not know you father personally, through meeting you and your family, I can see that you were raised in a loving and warm family. The values you have came from the family in which you were raised. I can only imagine how much of an impact your father has had on how compassionate and caring a person you are.
Please accept our heartfelt condolences at this most difficult time and please pass these sentiments on to your family.
With Our Sincere Sympathy,
The Valentine's
