Thank you all for your encouragement and compassion.

I wanted to include a note about the donations to ensure there is no misunderstanding about why a fund was established. While we are not seeking to profit from our daughter's wrongful death, it was requested by so many people that we set up a fund so they will have a means of 'assisting' our family.

We know that God is our source and He has provided well for us. His word says that our Lord supplies every one of our needs according to His riches in glory. Due to His goodness and mercy, Eric and I were well positioned to bury our daughter, to take care of our medical expenses, and to take care of our son without a penny of donations from a fund.

However as it was requested by numerous people who desired a means to contribute beyond the flowers, cards and well wishes (thank you) that we establish a fund so that they can have a means to do so.

We are not soliciting contributions, only collecting voluntary contributions from which a tenth of all proceeds will be paid to our Lord as an offering via our church, and the remainder will be presented to Miles as a gift from his sister Gabrielle, when he's old enough to prayerfully determine how to use it wisely.

The only thing we ask of you, and pray for each and every one of you, is that our testimony will impress upon you of how important it is to know Jesus and to develop a personal relationship with him, and to accept Him as the Lord and Savior of your life. Parents, train our children in the way they should go. No matter how imperfect we are, God can still use us. No matter how young or old we are, God can still use us. No matter how great the pain, God can still use us.

It's never too early to start but it can be too late if you wait another day because tomorrow is not promised to any of us. PLEASE, PLEASE don't put off a relationship with the Lord another day.

We KNOW that we'll see our precious Gabrielle again one day, but until then, may she rest safely and joyfully in peace, in the Master's loving embrace.

We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us because with God, ALL things are possible. Be blessed and stay encouraged.

God is an AWESOME GOD and he definitely has a plan in place for everything. You are a strong believer and I know your faith will carry you through.

God Bless,

Hello Sandra,Eric and Miles,

I don't personally know any of you,but I just want you to know that my heart goes out to you. I will keep you in my prayers. God is your comforter,just call on him. I know you don't understand they Y behind what happened but by and by you will see your Gabby again.

God Is concerned about our pain.

Jesus' example

The story of Lazarus's death and resurrection (John 11:1-44) contains a profound teaching about sorrow. When Jesus arrived and was taken to the graveside, he wept openly. Onlookers were impressed with the power of his grief and immediately recognized it as an indication of his great love: "See how much he loved him," they said.

The tears Jesus shed that day forever validate the experience of human sorrow and grief. Even though we have the hope of resurrection and we know that for the believer physical death is not the final word, our tears and sorrow are appropriate and good. How comforting to know that God himself is willing to walk the way of sorrow with us! Is there any sorrow that you have been unable to express fully? You can share it with the Lord, for he understands your grief fully.

Your sister in Christ Myra

Sandra and family, My thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time. Have faith and the strength your family needs will be provided. In the book of Matthew Jesus says "if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, nothing will be impossible for you."

My name's Destiny, and Gabby was one of my bestest friends. It almost seems like it didn't happen, but unfortunately, I know it did. I'm really sorry that Gabby didn't make it, but at least ( I hope ) the rest of you are all right. I cried for a really long time, but then I realized that I was glad I even knew Gabby at all, because she was so nice to everyone, especially me. I'm sorry she didn't get to have that sleepover. I was even thinking about seeing if I could go to GA to go to it. I'm sorry I couln't go to the funeral, because I'm in Indiana. But I know that Gabby's in the best sleepover there is, which is in heaven, because there's no other place she could possibly be. And hopefully one day, I'll get to go too. And if there was one thing I could say to Gabby, it'd be that I really miss her, and that it never happend.

To the Hendrick's family, I don't know you personally, but your family is in my prayers. I pray that the comfort of God's love continue to hold you tightly together as a family. That His presence would continually overshadow you in your time of loss. There are many others who don't know you, however are praying for your family. May the spirit of Christ keep you, may His light shine upon you and give you peace. Your daughter is in a better place. God bless you, Missionary Tonya Green

Say not in grief she is no more, but live in thankfulness that she was, and is now with our Heavenly Father.

Sandra, I had the pleasure of meeting you at a joyous event (Mary's wedding) and now greet you expressing my condolences to

you and your family. However as sisters in Christ, we are assured that Gabby has been handpicked by GOD to await, oversee and continuously guide her family left here on earth.

Be blessed and comforted by the Holy

Spirit whom Christ left with us.

I HAVE NEVER MET EITHER ONE OF YOU IN MY LIFE BUT I WANTED TO STOP BY AND LET YOU KNOW THAT I AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOST AND AS LONG AS YOU KEEP HER IN YOUR HEARTS EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE. I WENT THROUGH THE SAME THING WHEN I LOST MY GRANDMOTHER, BUT I KNOW SHE'S IN A BETTER PLACE JUST LIKE GABRIELLE.

We have never met, but I am a Southern Living consultant, and I recieved your email to those of us who prayed for you. God bless you in this difficult time. My family and I are so sorry for your loss and we will pray for you. Your expression of your faith is an inspiration to me and countless others.

To the Hendrick Family.

I had the pleasure of having Erick as my trainer at ACS a few years ago and I am so very saddened to hear about Gabrielle. Unfortunately, I experienced the same heartache when I lost my mother in a very similar manner this past January. I wish I had the words or a magic wand to make it all go away for you. Gabrielle was a beautiful angel. Keep her alive in your hearts with the memories. You have my most heartfelt sypmathy, and I will continue to keep you in my prayers.
