bear,
just know that you are very close in every thought and prayer

My thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.
We are deeply saddened by your loss.
We will cherish the memories of the times we spent together.
Lean on your friends for strength

May the God of comfort help you during this difficult
time
May the love of those around you help you through the days ahead

Make your peace with that and all will be well.
