I am saddened to hear of the loss of your son. I believe I met him when I visited your business some years ago when I was passing through Hinesville. I stopped to visit about Brinkley family connections. Hopefully, I may see you again. God bless you in this tragic time in your life. The joy of Heaven is a comfort in these times.

There are no words that can help to understand what has happened. Only know that God plan is not ours and his ways are his own. Cory was a special young man and I enjoyed the year when I taught him in Sunday school. If there is anything that we can do please let us know. We love you and God bless.
