Tina, Walter and sons: When I learned of Seth's passing I could not help recall the first time that I ran into Tina and the boys at the grocery store when they were just tots. The three youngsters were helping Mom shop and keeping her busy. I am truly sorry for your loss, but know he is in a better place. Peace be with you at this difficult time.

Tina,
You are awesome, I don't think I would be brave enough to stand up and share the way you did at the memorial service, it was beautiful. May our comforting Lord heal your loving heart.

Walter, Tina, and fellas, Jane and I were so saddened to hear of Seth's death.
I was able to attend the service today and Tina you were so eloquent, compassionate, and moving.
I only met Seth once, Im pretty sure, and that was when he was just a tot, but feel I knew him and join in your sadness.
As you said tho, he is in a better place, safe from all of the dangers here on earth.
You all are in our prayers.

I am so sorry for your loss. No words can describe how much I loved, enjoyed and cared for Seth. He could always cheer me up and make me laugh with his silliness and humor. He will be grealtly missed by all who loved him dearly. I hope all of you can find strength and hope during this time. He spoke about all of you very often and loved every single one of you so much.His Family was very important to him. He is at peace now and I hope all of you can find peace as well. I write this with a very heavy heart.
With Love,

Dear Andes family--Beth Holt forwarded us the news of Seth's death. We are praying for you as you go thru this very deep sadness. We fondly remember Seth during our early homeschooling days--I loved the days it was my turn to teach him!! Tina, I will be in touch soon, but for now know I am thinking and praying for you and all of your family. May God send you His amazing peace. Much Love, Martha for all of the Adams (the Greensboro Adams!)

Andes Family,
We are praying for you and love you very much. May the God of all comfort, comfort you as you release Seth to Him.
Isaiah: He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion—to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.
He will be with you through every minute.
Love you,
Rob & Lyn Westermann

Tina, Walter, Justin, Nathan & Claire--
These are our prayers for you and for Seth- May God assure Seth eternal memory among all who knew and loved him. May God grant you all the grace to fully entrust Seth's soul to God's never failing love and care. May Almighty God, the Father of all mercies and giver of all comfort, deal graciously with you as you mourn. We pray through Jesus Christ our Lord. We pray as we do because neither we nor any other mortals can restore you to full health and to the peace which passeth all understanding.

I am so sorry to hear of the death of Seth. Our daughter died last year and she was around Seth age so I can understand the shock at the loss of someone so young. I told people they only way that I got through it was to take one positive step each day no matter how small and as time went by, I would look back to see how far I had come. Hopefully that will work for you. I feel that Seth is in a better place and at peace and he is in the arms of God.
May God be with you and your family at this sad time and give you the strength that you need to get through his loss.

No words can express our sorrow for you but we know your love for Seth and faith in God will help you through each and every day.

Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."
He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!" Then he said, "Write this down for these words are trustworthy and true."
