Dear Stephanie and Rene, I am so sorry to read that your son, Jacob, is no longer with us on this earth. The consolation is that this is not the end. It is the beginning of the rest of his joyful eternal life with our Lord and his family that was already waiting for his arrival!! I pray that our Lord will grant peace to all of your family during these trying days!
