I cannot even begin to know how you feel. What I do know is that you are loved and Kayla is loved. This is not the end for any of you but a new beginning. Kayla will live on in your hearts and memories and there is a place for her in heaven. My Mother tells a story of how Grammy P came to her in a dream and asked her to pray for Erma. I am deeply grieved with your loss and will pray for you and Kayla.
