Dear Patti,
My heart breaks for you when I think about your loss. Taylor was such kind and friendly soul. May your many memories bring you joy and your faith bring you comfort in know you will meet again. My prayers will be with you for many months to come.

Patti and Family,

I pray that you each find peace in knowing that this is a temporary separation. Our time on earth is so short compared to the eternity in heaven. I encourage you to allow our wonderful Heavenly Father to comfort you during this difficult time. ...

I pray that the family feels God's loving spirit at this time. Taylor will be missed at St. Michael's church. Special hugs sent to you, Patti.
