My friend, I'm so shocked to hear of your passing. Although those of us that knew you must carry on with the pain of broken hearts to know that you no longer walk among us, we'll also take comfort in knowing that you can no longer feel pain and that we will see you again one day.

I am an internet chat buddy of the deceased.  He was truly a gentleman and cared so for his wife and family.  He was a hard working man.  He will be missed in our chatroom.  My condolences to his Wife, I believe I am correct to say two daughters and his beloved granddaughter.  If I missed any more grandchildren - it is because of his illness we lost touch.  Truly a loss for all.  Great Man.

Our chat group is all heartbroken at the news at the loss of a dear friend and chatter.  He was always a gentleman and never said a cross word to anyone.  He cheered everyone's day and people from all over the world and country have been touched by the news of his passing.  Known to us all as Bornsons, or bornsie.  

RIP dear chat buddy.

There's a lot of us who are crushed to learn of his passing. We never met him in person, but he was friend to many, regardless.  

 We'll miss your candor, your class.. your mornings from the office. 

I hope you're enjoying your rest. You stood your ground when so many others would've given up long before.  Glad you got to enjoy your grandling in the short time you got to be with her, even as she frowned on you dancing or singing. I hope that brought you some solace. 

It is with the utmost sympathy that I offer my heartfelt condolences on the passing of my fraternity brother  and friend Richard. We shared many humorous experiences as members of the Pi Lambda Phi Fraternity.  Many of these experiences has to do with our landlord Rafeel Montalvo who was always trying to get us to leave because of our college life antics. Richie was often involved in our often all-night poker games and late night visits to the all night diner for a snack. He will be sorely missed.
Rest in peace Richie.

Bonnie, Pamela and Jill.....
Our heartfelt sympathy for your loss and know our thoughts and prayers are with you.
