Dear Mr. Phillips,

I am deaply saddened to hear the news of Nicci and am very sorry for your loss. I worked with Nicci at the YWCA and she was such a nice person. I can fully understand the loss you are going through, my husband and I lost our 2 year old daughter last July to a brain tumor. It is a terrible thing to have to go through and if you need anyone to talk to even through e-mail, please feel free to write. Again our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Mr. & Mrs. Phillips, Dan, and Brianna:

You may not remember me, but we were neighbors back in the early 80's. You may remember my Mom Judy, very well.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I have not seen you all in a very long time, but please know you are in my prayers, and I hope you can find strength to get through this very sad time.

God bless your family.

Love,
