Perhaps you sent a lovely card or sat quietly in a chair, perhaps you sent a floral piece, if so, we saw it there. Perhaps you spoke the kindest words that any friend could say. Perhaps you were not there at all: just thought of us that day. Whatever you did to console our hearts, we thank you so much whatever the part.
