Dear Dr. Steele and Family,
I was deeply saddened to hear of your mother’s passing. She must have been a truly remarkable woman, as evidenced by her loving family and the legacy of her 54 years of marriage. A committed Christian, she clearly lived a life full of faith, love, and devotion to those she held dear.
While we have not remained in continuous contact, I have always held you and your family in the highest regard. You impacted my life as a teacher and minister, and I wanted to let you know that my thoughts and prayers are with you, your father, and all of your family during this difficult time.
May her memory be a comfort and a blessing to you all as you reflect on the beautiful life she lived.
With deepest sympathy,
Amber Hobbs Shaw
