Dear Edna,
I'm using the same condolences again through the years your heart still feels the same.
The loss of a son is a pain that words can't compare. It is a sword that cuts your heart apart but in the midst of it all God remains present. He places His Comforting and Healing arms around us to let us know He is also present in our suffering. My ongoing prayers and condolences with you, family and friends. He is gone but not forgotten.

There will never be words to express the pain we feel for a loved one especially a child and yes we know that God is always there for us / loving us / consoling us - but the pain remains. May you always feel God's consoling and loving arms surrounding your family.
