Dear LaJuana, I am so very sorry about your lost. Proverbs3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths." We may not understand it now, but we'll understand it better by and by. I love you and because of transportation I was not able to come, but my prayers are with you.
Love, Tanya
