Dear Cheryl,



Was so sorry to hear about your sons passing. I don't think I had ever met Troy but I'm sure he was a great son. Remember to take care of those grandkids for him.

Cheryl and Gary,

Our deepest sympathy goes out to both of you. There is not one word that can ease the pain and suffering that one experiences when losing a child. Now you have an angel in heaven who is no longer suffering and will now be watching over all of us.
