Not sure what to say?

Dear Chad,
My thoughts go out to you and your whole family. In Judaism we say, "Zichrona l'vracha" - may his memory be a blessing. May you and his mother brothers carry his memory and his love and creativity with you always.

Dear Muilenburg Family,
Words fail me in being able to express my sadness for your family's loss. May Colin's spirit and your love for him forever live in your heart.

I've had the pleasure of knowing the Muilenburg's since Zachary first visited us in 2001 for his first dental visit. Colin showed up for his first exam in 2003. Joshua brought up the rear in 2006.

This is one of the most beautiful celebration of life articles I have ever read......what a beautiful young man and soul, everything the family shared about his life and personality so giving to the reader......he was meant to be on this however short term...his eyes were wide open while here.

I am so sorry for your loss.

We feel blessed to have been given the chance to be apart of your lives and to have experienced Colin's bright smile, inquisitive mind and creativity watching him blossom from a shy child into the amazing young man that...

Dear Muilenburg family, Even though I never met your son, this tribute here to his young life is incredible and such an inspiration. Treasure these great memories and your family are in my prayers....
