Karen,
I was truly sorry to hear about the lost of your brother. Trust in the Lord for he will guide you. Having lost my mother 2 months ago, know that the void is somewhat lifted as time passes and you laugh at memories. They are where they want to be, watching over us. They are never forgotten but, it does get easier with time. Know that I am here for you.

To the family: When I last talked with Boo Boo, he told me about the angels and asked if I believed in angels from heaven. He was weak but able to speak on how the angels come and watch over him. The same way James spoke so assuring of "his angels from heaven" be confident in knowing that the same God who sent His angels to watch over James will also keep you in peace during this time of sorrow.
My continued prayers are with you always.

Love,
Snoopy
