Dear Mark and Ann, Jon and Ted,

Dear Mark and Ann ~ When I spoke with Ruth (in Kenya) last night, she informed me of what had happened; all of the ladies at Amani ya Juu are praying for you and your family. Although I never had the chance to meet Ben, I am saddened to hear of his passing. You will be in my thoughts and prayers as you mourn. May our Almighty Father comfort you with His peace. ~In His grace, Susan

Dear Fackler Family,
I'm so sorry for your loss. I really don't know what to say. I went to highschool with Ben. I was still in touch with him, and had just received an email a few days before.
I wish you all the best. I am so sorry for your loss.
