To The Wilder Family,
Sending our love, prayers and condolences. I met Bryant due to my daughter and Brittnee being the best of friends when they were younger and from then on when ever I saw him it was always a pleasure. Take comfort in knowing Bryant is now resting with our Father God Jehovah watching over you all with those pretty eyes and beautiful smile. Even though this pain may be hard to understand right now, lean on your faith in our father to find the answer to your question of "WHY?" and use your precious and sacred memories to help you heal. May Jehovah comfort, keep and bless you all!!!
