Jon Youqiang Rider

I remember when you first brought Jon home. He came into the salon so everyone could get haircuts. He was so sweet and curios. He wanted to watch everyone get their hair washed and cut. He was so excited when it was his turn. Those memories still make me smile. His excitement to learn everything he could was refreshing.

To the family. I am so sorry for your loss. May the God of all comfort be with you at this time. Jeremiah 29:11.

Melodye, This is one of those difficult times that there isn't much to say. Know that I am praying for you.

My Dear Melodye, and family...this is one of those times words of comfort and understanding are hard to find....from reading Jon's obituary, I can see many traits you shared...love of nature, family, and humankind....another promising light snuffed out too soon. May God and our Lord wrap their loving arms tighter around you during this time of sorrow and maybe asking....why? Hugs and love, Diane

Pastor Melodye, weve never met. I know about your amazing heart through my sister who attends your church. Many hearts are broken for your family today. I hear all the time how God blesses others lives through you. May the blessings flow back to you a hundredfold, and the Lord fill you with peace and assurance that Jon is in a place of joy.

May God wrap your family in His comforting arms as you grieve.
