Hey Guys Whoa is the least of my thoughts at this moment. My heart joins the family in this time of sorrow. I am sure words cannot express how you all may feel at this time. I just want to say that although this may be a time of deep sorrow. I would like to send a message that may offer some comfort in believing that God is Great. Often we are faced with challenges that could only be revealed by our faith and trust that God will always prevail in times of sorrow and in times of need. May you all find faith and love in Gods will and find strength with the Lords endurance. When the eye of the storm seems most difficult and God may feel so distant know you have friends who are willing to walk with you along the way. May God Bless You and guide you during this time and please know people who truly care are here for you.

Dee, words cannot express my sorrow for you and your family. We talked many times about the baby shower and the expected joy awaiting Zoey. Dee know that even though it seems like it God doesn't make mistakes. He needed Zoey with Him a little while longer. We don't know why, but trust God to reveal it to you later. Continue to trust God for your strength during the days ahead because He will never leave or forsake you. I know right now it may seem as though He has. My prayer is that he will wrap his arms around you and your family and keep you in his perfect peace. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Dee I'm just a phone call away.
