Mike and Lisa,

I was saddened to hear the news of the accident from a friend...and then to realize it was your sweet Hannah was just heart breaking. I will always remember sweet, little blonde-haired Hannah from when we carpooled with your family when our kids were at Calvary. I can't imagine the pain you all are feeling right now. I know, from experience, that nothing anyone can say right now can ease that pain, but may you somehow be comforted knowing that you are in the thoughts and prayers of so many, including ours. Thinking of you all...

Dear Gilmer Family

I do not know you nor did I know your daughter but my heart is broken for the pain and void that I know you feel in your heart. I lost my son Joshua 4 years ago to a brain tumor at the tender age of 15. So I know the heartache and grief you hold. No words are comforting enough during this time. Please know that there is someone out here that knows what you are going through and you are not alone. I pray the loving arms of the Father holds you close during this time of not understanding why life holds the things it does.

June 21, 2012

Dear Family, Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time of grief. We are so very sorry for the loss of your beautiful Hannah. We cannot even begin to comprehend what you must be going through at this time but know that you all are being lifted in prayer and you are on our hearts.

May you continue to receive the love and support of your friends and family for that is how you will get through this. It's hard, but you will make it through this deepest state of grief. I will continue to keep you in my prayers as you enter these hard days ahead. We lost my brother at a young age in a tragic accident so I understand your pain as I have felt my own and watched my parents. May you find the support and strength you need in Gods and your friends and family's comforting embrace.
