    Please accept my heartfelt condolences for the loss of your dear one. At times like these there are few words that can bring us solace, but may your most treasured moments bring warmth to your hearts, and may the promise by our Lord Christ Jesus, of the resurrection at John 5:28,29 comfort you during this time of great sorrow.

    My condolences to the family. RIP to the only father that I've known my entire life. Truly regret that I'm not there to pay my respect. Glad that I had a chance to speak with him in December even tho he couldn't speak and that he got​ the chance to see his other grandchildren.
