So many prayers and love are with you. Only God can give you the peace you need to get through this. A beautiful bright light has left us but anyone who knew her will carry that shine with us forever. I can see her smile every time I picked her up on my bus as well as all of you did. You're a special family and your love for each other will give you the strength to endure. God's love and arms are around you. I'm honored to know all of you and have you on my bus. Love you

I lost my son six years ago in July. I know the pain you are feeling and words fall too short. Try to hold on. All of your family have my sympathy. And I offer you my prayers that God may sustain you.
