I am so sorry I could not join you all today. Sending all my love and lots of prayers. So sad, but beautiful service I could feel the pain in your hearts as I cried for you Tonya, Susie, Abby, Hannah and Sabrina. I truly lost it when Ben spoke, what a true gentleman he has become. I love you all so dearly. Keeping everyone in my thoughts and prayers. xoxo

Please accept my sincere condolence for your loss. It truly broke my heart to read about Gavin's accident and death. As both a mother and grandmother, like the two of you are, Tonya and Suzie, I am sure the pain you feel is excruciating and will be for a long, long time to come. I'm certain that all of you are also relying on comfort from Bible promises of a resurrection (Acts 24:15) and the sure future of paradise when all causes of the pain you're experiencing will be completely gone forever. (Rev. 21:4) Tonya, Hannah, Abby, and Suzie, you're all in my prayers.
