Dear Musker Family,
I heard about Mary's father's illness through the long-time playgroup to which Bobby, Bridget, and Michael belong. We had hoped that he would have more time with you all. I'll be thinking of you as you come to terms with this hole in the web of your lives and relationships. I'm glad that you have such a strong family to lean on.
With love,
Kristin

Dear Pat and Family,
I was fortunate to meet your father at your Christmas party a couple of years ago. You've always told such wonderful stories about him and especially about his sense of humor. That is obviously a gift that he has passed to the next generation. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Much Love, Sara Maddox
