I am so Sorry for your loss. I only spoke to Kyle a couple of times at church. I was very shocked this morning to hear of his passing. I pray that you are comforted in the fact that he is now with the Lord. I hope seeing him outwardly express his relationship with Jesus Christ on Easter Sunday through Baptism assures you he is now walking with the Father. Praying for you during this difficlut time.
