Dear Gary, Deb and family,

Deb and Gary, so sorry to hear about your Mom. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Dear Gary, Deb & family,
I’m so sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. No matter how old they are or how old we are, it is always hard to lose a parent. Keep your wonderful memories of her in your heart. You have my deepest sympathy.
So sorry to hear of Lorraine’s passing. She was a wonderful woman and I have many good memories of her and Don in our Bounder group. God Bless you and give you strength as you cope with your loss.
Deb, I am so sorry to hear about your mother. My mom just called me to let me know about her passing. It must have been great for her to be able to be so close to her daughter and grandchildren these past few years and great for all of you as well. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. I will call you when things settle down a bit.
Deb and Gary,
I enjoyed christmas cards from your mother every year. We had just received one from her this last week. I am so sorry to hear that she had passed. Our sympathy and prayers are with you and your family for peace and healing. Anything we can do–please ask.
Tom, Sherry and Family
