Dear Lori,
We were all shocked and so very sorry to hear about Dustin. As neighbors, he was at our house often and was such a sweet, polite boy. Our prayers are with you and your family at this very difficult time.

No Words

There are no words to comfort the heart of a grieving mother.

There are no words to make sense of this insane situation.

There are no words to explain why a child would die so young.

There are no words to justify the unfairness of this appalling tragedy.

There are no words to fill the gaping hole in your heart.

There are no words to make this horrific event magically disappear.

There are no words powerful enough to make right this dreadful wrong.

There are no words to replace your precious son, Dustin.

There are no words, but there is love from your family and friends to surround and embrace you.

I love you my dear friend and hurt for you. You will always be my soul sister and your pain is my pain.
