Dear John and Family,
George and I would like to offer you our condolescences in the passing of your father and grandfather. I know the void and pain that this will leave in your life, as I just lost mom 2 years ago. She is always in my thoughts and will always be with me, where ever I go to look over me. But, the joyful memories that I had with her I will have forever. Find the courage to get through this sorrowful time, and remember all the good memories and things that you have of them. They say it gets easier with time, yes it does some but not fast enough for me.
With our Deepest Sympathy, George and Judy Martin and family
