To Evelyn Saunders and Erin Rhodes:

In wanting to take time and convey my deepest sympathy to the both of you and to let you know that my heart goes out to you. Be encouraged holding onto God’s unchanging hand seeking strength from Him and from those you love. It is my earnest prayer that JaRon will be welcomed into the Kingdom of Heaven where there is no hurt, harm or danger and the only tears to be shed will be tears of joy from God’s angels when JaRon receives his crown of glory. Seek peace from God through his dear son Jesus Christ knowing that the Father will meet you at your point of need. Take care and God bless. Your friend in Christ.
