David W wrote a sympathy message

“As is usual in small communities, we don’t always know each other personally, but when one hurts we all hurt. Please know that our family is upholding yours in our thoughts and prayers. Our hearts hurt for you, deeply. We pray for strength and peace and if possible, comfort, in this time of devastating grief. Nothing we can say here makes this loss any easier, we know that, but we do genuinely care. Dave and Juliana Wright (Boswell Ln)”
