May God hold you close right now, Beth. I am so sorry for your loss! It won't be long until Jesus comes again and we can look forward to that great resurrection morning when we can be reunited with our loved ones who have gone to sleep. You're in my thoughts and prayers. Dad and Mom send you their condolences as well and want you to know that they're praying for you.

For some moments in life, there are no words. Each life, no matter how brief, forever changes the life of those it touches. My condolences to the family and friends.
