Kay and Raul, our hearts are heavy and many tears have fallen for you guys since yesterday. We won't be able to make any of the services as Caleb starts 5 days of chemo in the morning and I have surgery in the morning, but our hearts are there with you. Words are not adequate, but we are praying for God's comfort and peace to envelope you guys in the days ahead. We take refuge in the fact that there is no pain or sickness where he is now and we will see him again when we get there. We love you! -Keith, Holly, Caleb, and Joshua
