Our deepest condolences to the families and children of Jeff and Julie. Happenings like this may question our belief in God, but remember there is always a reason. I only had the opportunity to speak with Julie and Jeff once or twice when they moved to the neighborhood, but watching them with their children, the love and the laughter, saddens a soul to think of the loss for all these beautiful children. May God hold the hands and the hearts of those left behind, but remember that they are resting in peace in the house of our Lord. From all your neighbors on 47th Street.
