I don't know if you remember me from the hospital, but I was one of Lee's nurses. I always looked forward to taking care of him and I was heartbroken to learn he passed. I am so sorry for your loss. I will keep you in my prayers.

Please know that others share in your loss and while tears may fall in the night know tht joy will come in the morning. Jesse continue to keep the faith and grow to the man your parents desire. Jesse I can recall when you were much younger and would venture with your mother to LVRS and your dad would come by and take you home. Memories last a lifetime as your dad has love for you. I uphold your family in prayers and ask that God wrap all in his arms. There is no bond greater thatn that of a mother and child.
Sincerely
