Condolence: I was so sorry to read of Mrs. Coates' passing. She was a wonderful person who made students feel supported and encouraged. She and Professor Coates were two of a kind--a great couple whose relationship I truly admired. My sincere condolences to Professor Coates and the family. John Diamond

Condolence: Don, I am so very saddened to learn of the recent passing of Alida. She has been in my thoughts so often through the years. She had such an indomitable spirit and such a hard worker. Working in the same building as she at the University for many years, we had many and varied conversations. And, of course, I would run into you both occasionally. My heart goes out to you and the entire family at this difficult time. I wish I could offer these condolences in person but, unfortunately, I will be unable to do so.

Condolence From: Nathan
Condolence: Please accept my condolences for the passing of your dear loved one. When someone we love dies, the heartache and grief can be great. I hope that you can be comforted knowing that God cares for you and sees your pain. (1 Peter 5:7) "He is close to the brokenhearted and He saves those who are crushed in spirit. (Psalm 34:18) May you find comfort and relief during this grievous time, as you cherish the precious memories of Alida.
