To Kathy & Family I am so sorry for your lost and hardly know what to say. I can only imagine what you must be feeling. I do know that God is in the midst of all of this. Allow yourselves to grieve. Jesus who has the power over life and death cried when His friend Lazarus died. Jesus was showing his humanity. It is human to cry over a loss. Allow that time and know that God is an ever present help. I know that God will continue to watch over you and our family which is now part of my family. I can truly say I love you all. May God's best continue to be yours.
