Ken & Jeanette, no one is able to understand the intense grief that parents experience in the loss of a child except those who still grieve the loss of their own child. In your sorrow, remember that our God so loved us that he gave his Son who died for us. Our Father knows your sorrow, and he holds you in the grace of his strong love with the promise that with you he will not forget Eric -- ever! Al & Jan Kuiper

Ken, Jeanette & family,
I am so sorry that you're experiencing such grief. Words cannot suffice to let you know the pain I feel with you in the loss of a precious son. It was a privilege to have him in one of my last Catechism classes. He was a thoughtful student. Shalom, Pastor & Shirley
