Dear Miles & Nicole,

It was a joy and a pleasure to watch Miles grow. I remember him as a baby and he always tried to run out onto the basketball court. He was so full of excitement when he saw a basketball. He will never be forgotten. I will always remember him that way. Just remember to be absent from the body means your present with the Lord. Your family will always be in my prayers.



Sincerely,

Sonya Lawson &

My family and I send deepest sympathy to your family. I did not have the pleasure to know Miles, but from a parent to a parent my heart goes out to you both. May God continue to shine upon you and comfort you in this hour of sorrow. Remember, Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. Miles is in a much better place, far more than what we can imagine. He is looking down upon you- smiling at Mommy & Daddy. God Bless.

I don't know you at all...I heard the news of your lost. My heart is sadden with the lost of such a young child. In sight Miles may be gone away from you...but in your hearts and mind he will always remain...God has his reasons for all that he does...he decided to remove him from your mist...you may wonder why?...don't question his work, for he knows the best...remember that we are here as a loan from above...we know not when we will be called home to live with God in the eternal garden. I offer to you my condolences to the family...I will continue to pray for all of you that God will continue to bless each of you as to walk this journey of hardship with God...There is comfort throught it all...just don't give up on your faith in God.

I didn't know your son, but my son attends your son's school so that really touched my heart moreso. I'm truly sorry for your loss, but God knows best. I can't say don't cry, do cry. I know you loved him, but God loved him best. God knows all about it. He is too wise to make any mistakes. Keep your hand in God's hand and only He can see you through this rough time in your life. Hold on to God's unchanging hands. May God bless and keep you and your family in perfect peace.
