Carol and Family,
You are in our thoughts on this awful day that you bury your child. A good friend of mine just lost her son last week and I asked her how she is able to go on. She told me that she was given the gift to be his Mom and even though it wasn't long enough she is thankful every day God allowed HER to be his Mom. Know that Richie is watching over you and thankful he had you for his parents. He would want you to continue on and one day be joyful again.

Dear Carol and Gerry, I will never forget the summer I spent babysitting for your beautiful, sweet and active 6-year old boy, Richie. Although I haven't seen him or you in abour 9 or 10 years, I always remember Richie and your family fondly and want you to know you're all in my heart and prayers today as the services happen and the following days and years to come. You had a one-of-a kind child and may his memories bring you a sense of peace in the coming days and years. He'll always be with you. Sincerely, Julie Johnson
