Brian, Riley, Makenna; the sorrow you are suffering through at this time I know cannot be put to word, and words will not make that suffering go away.
All I can offer is a message from my heart; I am deeply, deeply sorry for your loss, and hold the hope that life is gentle with you as the days come.
