Jeff,
I was reading the paper and saw the obituary. I am sorry to hear about your father. I have been thinking about baseball season coming, and spring just won't be the same without being around you, Dan, and Randy. Just wanted to write you a note and let you know that I will be thinking about you guys.

I am so sorry for your loss. I know things are difficult right now, but time really is a healer of those things that are painful. Your memories of your dad will be quite comforting in the days ahead. I am always here if you need me.
