Dear John,
I am so sorry to learn of your mom's death. I always loved stopping by the vegetable stand and talking to her. We'd often talk so much about dogs that I'd forget to buy vegetables. It won't be the same without her.
I am thinking of you and your family during this sad time and wish you peace.
Yours,
Beth Crawford

Dear Angie, I have nothing but positive thoughts about your family. You have shown so many of us what it means to be hard-working people who care about the people in their community. Both you and your mother have delivered the Gazette to us for years, always on time, never late. The Fydenkevez family has always been an outstanding one, and I am sorry for your loss.
