    David – We are sorry to hear of the passing of your father. You have really been hit hard the past several weeks. Due to Pat having some foot surgery we aren\’t able to get out as we would like and are unsure if we will be able to make the visitation, but wanted to let you know we are thinking about you and will hold you and your family in our prayers.

    Dear David,

    In recent days, I was already praying for you after your very recent loss of Marsha; thus, I was so very sorry to learn of this second family death– that of your father. I know the sadness of both of those losses and I\’m thankful you have many family members and friends to help you through this very difficult time. Please know I am one of those friends who will be remembering you in prayer.

    Sincerely,

    Bonnie
