I came across your son's obituary seeking to find someone's else. I felt compelled to say how heartfelt sorrow I feel for the loss of your son. We too have a son whom is 27yrs. old; and can't imagine the heartbreak that you are feeling. May God give you the strength and compassion you need at this time, and accept my deepest and heartfelt sympathy at this time. Devine's ( Kenosha,Wi.)
