Dear Mrs. Bonner, Catherine, Elizabeth, Lindsey, and David:
So sorry, dear friends,
for the pain that you bear
And the loss that you're feeling right now....
But please understand
that, deep in their hearts,
Friends want
to help you somehow
And want you to know
that they're hoping
Brighter days will be coming your way,
And that time and the prayers
of so many who care
Will lessen your sorrow each day.

David and family; I am deeply saddened by the loss of your father. I will always have many fond memories of your mom and dad taking us to the mountains, the Country Club, camping at Rocks Pond, etc. Your Dad was always fun to be around, and enjoyed life to the fullest. Please rest assured that he is now in a better place, and that his true life is just beginning. My deepest sympathies to you and your family in this time of grief.
