    Dear Danny,

    I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of your mother. Losing someone so dear is never easy, no matter the years we’ve been blessed to share with them. Your mother’s long life is a true testament to her strength, love, and the beautiful legacy she leaves behind through you and all who loved her.

    With sympathy,
    Kuzas Family
