Message: During this difficult time I would like to extend my most heartfelt sympathies. If you need a friend to help you through this, you know who to call.

Message: We are very sorry to hear about Aunt Doris. Unfortunately, I didn't get the message until late today (Tuesday) and I'm not able to leave the office tomorrow, as I'm the only one in until afternoon. I feel badly, as Aunt Doris was so good to us, and we always had such a warm welcome when we visited. We are thinking of you all, and sending much love.
