Dr. & Mrs. Dew:
I did not know your son, but I am sending my heartfelt condolences. Dr. Dew, I was a patient of yours 40 years ago. You delivered my daughter Amanda. She joined her brother Zach, whom we lost in 2008. May God bless you all.

I can't tell you how deeply saddened I am for all of you. Such a terrible loss for everyone. May God wrap his arms around you all and give you peace in the coming days. Ellison and Chandler, I have never had the pleasure of meeting you two, but it is so obvious how proud he has always been of you both. My girls went through this also at a young age so I feel your pain. Hang on to those wonderful memories.
