Dear Anne and Danielle.
We are so sorry to hear that Anne-Marie´s host dad passed away.
We did not know Dave, but through Anne-Marie we have been told that he was quite a remarquable person. He was a caring person who did a lot for his host daughters and their friends. Anne-Marie is extremely sad these days.
However, you suffer the greatest loss. Please accept our sympathy.
Love and prayers from Mette (Anne-Marie´s mother in Denmark).

Anne,

I was shocked and saddened to hear of the unexpected passing of your husband Dave. Loss is never easy, but the sudden, unexpected passing of a spouse is extremely difficult and heart wrenching. My family and I will be keeping you in our prayers, praying that our Father in Heaven will comfort you in your grief and strengthen you with his Love and Mercy in the days and weeks ahead. May your family and friends be a source of support for you. Our Lord and Savior went before us to provide a way to be with the Father. Your Dave is there now. I hope in time that thought will comfort you. God Bless and keep you.
