Dear Linda and family,
Todd was a beautiful, sensitive, soul! I will cherish the times he spent with me in my classroom and just around school! He was always so curious and loved sharing jokes with me! It sure helped those long weekends working at school! Jared, the letter you wrote about Todd was absolutely beautiful and it touched me, as did spending time with Todd did too! You are all in my heart and prayers!!!
Love,
Colleen

Linda and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I'm really at a loss for words. There are no words that can make the loss a child easier.
What I will pray for you and your family is the strength to make it through the fist day, then the next and the ones following until it becomes easier to breathe and cope.
Wishing that God offers you the strength,
