Iam so deeply sorry that this happened lyric was a beautiful young woman praying for comfort for all of the family

August 2, 2016

I couldn't make the funeral and I'm deeply sorry for that. Lyric was a beautiful young lady and she was obviously loved by so many people. I'm in absolute shock that this could happen to her. She didn't deserve this and I can't imagine what her family or Kyle are going through. Lyric fought so Baby Marley could make her way into this world and I know Lyric's going to be watching over her as she grows into a tremendous woman just as Lyric did.
