Preslie was one of Jaden's best friends in kindergarten this year. And, one of my most favorite kids to work with on volunteer days. We absolutely loved her. She was beautiful in every way, we will never forget the blessings she brought to our lives. So glad for the time we had with her, and we will miss her terribly next year at school. Our prayers and love are with you all.

I heard this painful news from Patrick today! We are so very sorry for your loss. Nothing we know of is more painful than the loss of a child. Your wounds are very fresh and fragile at this time and we encourage you to be gentle with yourself and take the time you need to grieve.
We are so sorry Rusty and Jamie for you and your family!
I know this sounds strange coming from me but I am human...and this is so very sad! I felt like I lost my son at times in my life but I have him today and couldn't imagine life without him...Please know we are praying for you and your family!
All our love,

Dear Rusty, Jamie and Payton,
We sometimes don't understand why God takes them from us so early. We have to believe he has a reason and it may take years to figure it out. She is in a wonderful place with all the others that you miss here on earth. She has no worries or pain and is sitting on the lap of Jesus. Little Preslie has touched so many lives in her 6 1/2 years. We are so sorry for your loss and our hearts and our prayers reach out to your family. If you need anything, please call.

Ron and Jamie I am deeply sorry for your loss, I want you to know that your family and friends are in my daily prayers. I first meet the two girls when my daughter was having her first baby and I remember Preslie wonting to know when it was going to come out so she could play with the baby.
