Dear Julie,
You’ve been a remarkable daughter for both of your parents – loving, reliable, and steadfast to the end. Your dad knew this and I’m sure he appreciated. He was a good dad and you’re a good daughter. With love and prayers for all of you. Maureen and John
Dearest Julie and Family,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your Dad.
We are of that age where our patriarchs and matriarchs are leaving us. It is such a deep loss as we reflect on how they influenced our own lives.
May you find peace in time
Sincerely
Valerie
Dear June – it’s so long since I’ve seen Ray, but I have heard with what patience he endured the difficulties of his last days. And of course I know what your own cheerful patience was. I hope you will come to join the group at least sometimes, starting with the next meeting on Thursday May 3 or at any time.
With greatest sympathy, Nancy K.
