I had so little exposure to Kyle over the years, but the most distinct memory I do have is this...whenever I was in the Creighton house and Kyle was there too, the world revolved around him. Not in a "spoiled" way...In a "we love you more than we can even show you" sort of way. I can't imagine the pain that you are all experiencing together in you own way, but find a tiny bit of solice in the fact that if a mere outsider could feel the love that you had for this wonderful little man...his interpretation of it must have been beyond tenfold. I'm deeply sorry for your loss and I'm happy that you will be with him again one day.

Laurie and Michelle,
I know too well the feeling of devastation and loss you both are feeling now. I, too, lost my most precious Kyle, way before I was ready to say goodbye. But know in your heart that God has a plan that we must trust is best for us. It doesn't make the hurt any less, but with time we can only try to understand. Wishing you all my love and prayers.
