Jeff and the entire family,

I am quite saddened to hear about the loss of your mother. She always found her way into our luncheon conversations and though I had never met her, I always thought of her as a very special lady. My deepest sympathies go out to you all.

Dear Family,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mom. Aunt Sophie was such a wonderful person and such a dear friend to mom. I know you will all miss her so much. I'm sure mom was at the gate of heaven with open arms to greet her.
My prayers and thoughts are with you all.
