Dear Mrs Scott and Family,

Please accept our sincerest condolences on the passing of Mr. Scott. I remember conversations with Grandad during your time in Pennsylvania the days surrounding Mitch and Leigh's wedding. You both displayed a charisma, passion, and caring that left a positive and lasting memory. I recall the same uplifting experience when seeing you again at Nicholas's first birthday. Your family is fortunate to have and have had such a positive influence in thier lives.

Fondly and with Sympathy,

Mario and Kathy Moses and Family

Friendship is refreshment and sweetness as we pass this way. It is much to feel that, wherever we are, we have friends, and that their friends are ours as well. Our Brother's friends are lonely in this hour, but the friendship we felt for him extends to them. We, too, loved him.
We, too, feel the pain of parting. Our sympathy, our love, are theirs as they were his. Our entire fraternity surrounds his loved ones with the assurance of its affection. We offer the support of our sympathy, the comfort of our faith, the inspiration of our hope, that they, with us, may look beyond this hour through the opening portals of the infinite. So then, let us be unceasingly grateful for every God-given virtue which the life of our Brother expressed, and let us be comforted and sustained by the assurance that life goes on unbroken and uncorrupted and that God alone is the life and light of men. AMEN
