Sue, my heart is broken to pieces knowing you've endured such a terrible loss. David was a smart and kind young man. I remember waiting on your porch with gifts for David as you both arrived from the hospital. I remember the glow in your eyes when you found out you were expecting him. You did a great job with both of your children. My deepest condolences goes to you and your family. Love you always Cheryl.....

The date or the hour is unknown to us, but what is evident each and everyday is the love, strength, and courage that God grants us to get through times like this. My cousin has fulfilled Gods plan for him and was needed back in the arms of our Father. Prayers of comfort for my family today and everyday!
