    Dear Elaine,
    We were deeply saddened to hear of the sudden death of my brother / brother-in-law Jim. We are away and didn’t know of some of the issues he was having prior to his sudden death. We trust the family will support Elaine in all ways she may need as we don’t get back to Canada until after the funeral.
    Our condolences and love to Elaine.
