My husband and I have a friend who works for the State Department and used to work for the president directly. He's one of the most generous, lovely people I've ever met. So when my dad died suddenly, our friend gave us one of the most thoughtful gifts he could have.
He had the president (of the United States!) send me a letter of condolence. Because I loved my dad and this was the president, after all, I posted the letter on Facebook.
Most people saw it and commented on what a wonderful man he must have been, how he did a great job raising us, how proud we must be, etc.
What my mom texted, instead, was:
Why did you get a note from the White House your dad was only in the service 4 years that I know of ... Just curious
