Dear Colin
My heart sunk for you when I heard Colin was your namesake. I did not know your son but if he was even a little like you, I am sure he was one terrific kid.
Enduring the sudden passing of a child is recognizably the most difficult loss. I am truly praying for your strength and trust you will find comfort in your family and friends.
God bless,
Carmen
