To my Aunt and uncle and cousins. Our heart grieves here in Georgia for the loss of one of our family members. Please know you all are in our prayers. In memory of what this young man has seen these last wondrous days on his new journey I posted
I can only Imagine the best song ever on Facebook to dedicate to him and our whole family during this difficult time. I hope it provides comfort for these long days ahead. He is and has seen remarkable glorious things in the kingdom we can only imagine here on earth. This time is difficult for us on earth. We don´t understand. But God understands the plans for us. He will be waiting for you. You will see your son again. We are all left to go on for the purpose God has for each of us. Be faithful and believe all your days and know he is home. Love Karen and David Floyd ( Denise´s) daughter and son-in-law in Georgia..
