Statements of Condolence
We will remember him as one of us.
Dr. Ronald A Schwarz, (PCV, Colombia 1, - 1961-1963)
I am the consular program officer in the Canadian consulate general
in Los Angeles. My husband and I knew Virginia and her husband from
our time in Manila, when we were members of the expatriate artist group.
We remember them as a friendly, sociable and helpful couple. To see
Larry's picture in the news was a shock to us.
Kindly forward this message to Virginia. Thank you.
Dear Virginia,
My husband and I extend our condolences to you and your family.
We have pleasant and vivid memories of Larry and you from our time when
Sonny and I were members of the expatriate artist group in Manila.
We remember eating homebaked brownies in your house in one of the group's
meetings. We remember playing tennis with you and the In Touch
Foundation. You will always have a warm place in our hearts.

Just a note from a Jordanian-American to Mrs. Foley to express and offer
my condolence and sincere sympathy.
My prayers are with Mrs.Foley, and I pray that Mr. Foley rest in peace.
Finally, I want Mrs. Foley to know ( I hope she already does) that
most of Jordanians if not all of them appreciate the services that Mr.Foley
provided to humanity and to Jordan in particular during courier. Thank
you.
Sincerely Yours,

I would just like to say how sorry and angry I am at the loss of Mr
Foley's life. It's a shame that Mr Foley, who was here to serve the
local people by trying to make their lives a little better, would be the
target of such a hateful act. My heart goes out to his
wife, children and grandchildren.
Sincerely,
Amy Schmidt

Dear Madams/Sirs,
I just would like to say sorry for the loss of Mr. Foley. His murder
makes me feel ashamed and makes every decent Jordanian disgusted. Unfortunately,
our silence allowed the murderers to speak on our behalf.
Sorry again for your loss.
Regards,

part of our family and he will be missed Virginia has asked
that donations in stead of flowers be given to Missionaries of Charity

Dear Sir,
Please accept and convey my deepest condolences to the family and staff
of the embassy on the tragic death of Lorry Foley at the hands of terrorism.

It saddens me to know that such evil exist in this world. Having
lost someone in a senseless act of violence I know there are no words to
comfort you and your family in this time of sorrow.
Know that prayers are being sent from the States.
Remember Mr. Foley was doing a great service to make this a better
world. And I believe good will win over evil in the end.
My sincerest sympathy
