To the Hervas family, my heartfelt condolences for your loss. Please find comfort in the knowledge that soon God will wipe out every tear from our eyes, and “death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”(Rev. 21:3,4) May this promise give you comfort now and a real hope for the future. My deepest sympathies.

Daniele delivered the devastating news yesterday evening. The weight of it left me numb. Slowly, as the night progressed, the memories of our time together as neighbors began flowing back to me. It’s been so long since I thought of them. I’ll keep them closer now. You’re in my thoughts.
Daniele, Dave, Emma & Olivia Whittaker
Today and always, may loving memories bring you peace, comfort, and strength.
Keeping you close in our heart and praying for the loss of your beloved, Milan.

Dear Roberta and Carlos,
Please accept my deepest love and sympathy. Milan was my first friend and was a wonderful person. Although it’s been some time, I carry the fondest memories of Milan from growing up next door and starting school together. I am so proud and privileged to have known Milan and to have called her my friend. I will miss the comfort of knowing she’s out there doing what she loves and pursuing new knowledge and hobbies, but I will have a new sense of comfort knowing that she is at peace and no longer in pain. My thoughts are with you, Celia, Pilar, your extended family and friends. Milan will continue to be loved and honored. She will always be my friend!
