Cliff and Family,
Pat and I were very sorry to hear about you mother. My mother died several years ago and Pat’s mother died less than two years ago. We both miss them a great deal, but like you we have many great memories of them. It is particularly difficult to lose someone at such an early age.
Pat and I are still in Germany but we will be returning late tomorrow.
Please let us know if there is anything that we can do to help you during this very traumatic time.

Dear Cliff and family,
I understand from Chad that your mother had been quite ill, nonetheless, the loss is still acute. I well remember the night I received the phone call that my dad had died instantly. No words are really sufficient but I do want you all to know that my prayers are with you. I know she was a Christian so I can at the least praise God with you for that. God bless you and give you strength during this time.
In His love….Pdail
