Elisa, Larry, and family, as there are no words for this, please know that our hearts are with you, and we pray for God's love and presence to comfort you.

June 19, 2013

Elisa and Larry, you have never met us, but we wish to express our sincere condolence to you both. We are the son and daughter-in-law of Helen and Maynard Hook, so I guess that makes us distant cousins. We followed your journal about Linda while she was ill, and after her death we followed your facebook messages and photos(especially of your children). We are very impressed with your entire family and your love of God. We have come to feel we know each of you even though we've never met.

Kayla was a lovely and remarkable young lady,and I'm sure she will be greatly missed by those people whose lives she touched, and especially by her family who loved her so deeply. We will remember her by her brilliant smile, as often seen in photos.

Please know that our hearts ache for you (again) at such a very difficult time in your life. Our prayers will be with you now and in the many painful days ahead.
