Mes plus sincères condoléances à la toute la famille Lafond. Je me souviens de quelques évènements (heureux et malheureux) que nous avons vécus avec vous tous. Vous êtes toujours là quand les circonstances le permettent et votre générosité et votre appui m’ont toujours fait chaud au cœur.
Le temps atténuera la douleur que vous ressentez présentement et mettra du baume sur votre plaie. J’en sais quelque chose. Serrez-vous les coudes comme vous l’avez toujours fait et profitez de chaque moment que la vie nous donne. La vie est un don si précieux.
Avec toute mon affection
Alberte
