Dearest [Name]

Sad as it is it was time for Myrna to take the next step in the journey of life. For every life there is a season, time to sow and a time to reap.

Myrna was a part of our lives for a very long time and had a long and full life; full of family and friends like us. She will be missed by all of us.

Still, her passing leaves a void that can't be filled and a sadness to overcome. We will all miss her.

As for you, you will probably miss her the most, as your love for her would be envied by any grandparent. And it is that love for her that will help you embrace her death as part of the master plan for all of us.

In closing, if you need anything or just want to talk, please give me a call and I will be there for you.

Love and Hugs,
