To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. God promised us that He would put no more on us than we can handle. For He knew us before we were ever formed in the womb. God makes no mistakes. When we can't trace God we are still to trust Him. For He already had a place prepared in His loving arms. He needed another angel, and He sent for Adrian. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. In all your memories, give God Thanks for the time He allowed you to share with him. God gave you a gift called Adrian and allowed you to enjoy him for a season, now He has called him home to be back in the Master's hands from where he first began. Adrian was "mama's boy" and "grandpa's big baby", now the three are back together in the midst of God's Glory. We will also be caught up in our season to be with them when the time comes for us to receive our wings. What a time we will have dancing on the streets of gold all around Heaven. Praise Him in the midst of your tears. He's not gone, he has only moved to a better home where there is unspeakable joy. A.J. when you are feeling low, look up and remember, your love ones are just a whisper away. We love you. Sylvia, Monie, Kem, and family, God hasn't forgotten you, He has all your tears in a golden bucket.
Love, Carissa, Chante', J.R., Tiny, Sonny
