Mary Jane and Cornelio,
Our hearts filled with sorrow when we heard about the loss of your precious and beloved daughter, Stephanie. It’s against the laws of nature for a parent to bury their child, for there is no greater love than the love we have for our children. So, we pray to our Heavenly Father for strength, comfort and healing for you, Krys and your family during this most difficult time and in the days to follow.
