David,

I was saddened to hear about Lily's passing. I remember you both when you stayed at the Jacksonville RMH. Lily was always smiling. Your family will be in my prayers. Take care of yourself and God Bless.

David...It is hard to believe that Lily is no longer by your side. I know how much you loved one another and the special bond as her father you shared. The special hug and kiss you always had to give before she went off for Porton Radiation. God has a plan for each of us..why now and why so short we do not know but Lilly will suffer no longer she is in the arms of our Lord and her own mother. I pray that you have the strenght to continue to be a wonderful dad to the rest of the children. ...

Love Manya and all your RMH friends in Jax.

Dear David and Family, I am shocked beyond belief that this amazing child is gone from our lives. I can not express my deepest of sympathies to you. It was such an honor to meet her during her time in Jacksonville. Hannah speaks of her and we will always have such fond memories of your beautiful daughter. She really touched my heart beyond belief. May God give YOU the strength that you need to keep her memory alive, but also the strength to move ahead with your life and make the best...
