Dear Amrit, 

I was greatly shocked to know about the sad and untimely demise of your dear mother. At first I did not believe it. When I met her last time, she was looking a good and healthy.

She was very kind and noble lady. She was a thoughtful and religious minded person. I remember the time spent with her and how she used to be so happy to bake for all of us.

Please accept my sympathies for the sad loss. She was a kind and gentle soul.
May her soul rest in peace.

Your friend,

Tanvir.
