You are all still in my prayers. Jenni was wonderful and I will always be grateful she came into my life. She was an angel waiting for her wings and is truly missed.

Hargis Family,

My truest condolences to your family. I can't imagine losing a daughter, as I haven't had children yet. I am thankful that you have an amazing God to lean on during this time and the promise of seeing her again, completely healed, in heaven.

God bless and restore you during these weeks and months.
