To Ms. Jackie and the rest of the Lane family you are in my heart and prayers. Death is never easy to handle espeacially when it is unexpected. I can say to you all just trust God and hold to his hand and as the day's pass the pain of your loss will get bearable. I dare not say to you I know how you feel but I can say I know what it feels like to lose a love one suddenly. I lost my father 07/03/08 and I know that it is rough for you all. So again I say continue to pray, never doubt, trust in God and know that she is now free of pain and suffering and she is flying with the angels. Take one day at a time and if you have to take the day hour by hour do so but know that God know's best...Love you all
