Dear Joe,
I am very sorry to hear of the death of your wife. I could tell when you came to our Christmas parties how very much you loved each other.
I hope you will continue to come to our Christmas party, as you will, to me, always be a special part of us here in the Math Dept.
Fond regards,
DL Hawkins
