Condolence: Joan I am so sorry to hear that your mother has passed away. She was a very lovely lady. I will remember both your parents fondly. They are now together again - your dad is still painting fences and your mom is hanging out laundry. That is what I remember from my childhood. Take comfort and peace in knowing they are once again united. Death is not an end because the memories of your parents will live forever in your heart and that of your children.42

Condolence: To the Blackwood family, Your father was a quiet respected man who treated me not a neighbour, but more like a son. I had the deepest respect for him and cherished his friendship. When he passed away last year I felt a grief as if I lost my own father. I miss him very much. Today I grieve for your mother in much the same way. She was always kind and caring towards me and I cherished our time together. I have nothing but deep respect and love for her and will miss her as I do your father. I will never forget your parents for they were a huge part of my every day life. I took pleasure in doing the little things I could for them I only wish I could've done more. To you the Blackwood family I can only give you my deepest sympathy at the loss of your mother today. Please take comfort in knowing that your friends and neighbours grieve with you and that you're lost is ours as well.
