Amy,
Both Bill and I want to extend our deepest sympathy on your dad's passing. Although it is little consolation at this sad time, it must be gratifying to know that in his passing we celebrate the end of a very long and productive life.
How fortunate for you to have had him for all these years, and so close by and able to see your children grow up. I think his proudest moments were in the role of "grandpa" and I know your children thought the world of him, as we all did.
I know that you and the kids will miss him dearly, as I will. I'm just glad that I have so many happy memories to remember him by.
May you find the strength to move forward with the confidence in knowing that his was a life well-lived. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
In Sympathy,
Eloise Dunn
