We did not know Lance except for through the eyes of his sister, Amanda. And through that we knew Lance as this wonderful man who Amanda loved and admired and cherished. What a tragic situation. We've simply got to believe that God is embracing this dear boy and that Lance waits for his mom, dad and sisters to reunite with him someday.

Lance died with dignity, honor, and integrity. Mark and Tracy, may you both find the courage to put one foot in front of the other every single day until those steps join in unison with Lance's.
