dear mrs .johnson.

although we have never met.your son stephen and i became close friends in boot camp and have corresponded regularly over the past four years.i was shocked to hear of his death and i am writing to extend my deepest sympathies to you and your family.

stephen was always full of energy and optimism. during training .he helped me overcome my fear of climbing and rappelling .when the exercises became too hard.it was stephen who always encouraged me to carry on. you must be very proud of him. it wasnt a surprise that he made sergeant before the end of his first hitch.
stephen once told me it was you who taught him that the best part of life is building good memories .i hope that the memories we built will help us to*soldier on* through this difficult time because neither you nor me will forget him. please .never hesitate to call me in case you need anything.here is my phone numbe 7214422.
