Mary, I am so sorry. At such a time there isn´t much anyone can say, but many hearts are hoping you will find strength & comfort in knowing so many of us share the loss of the one so dear to you. I send you my love and heartfelt sympathy. The world is a little sadder now for anyone who was lucky enough to have known him.
