My prayers are with the family of this precious angel. Although I did not know your son, I heard many wonderful things of him. While your loss is unfathomable please take some comfort in knowing that he is in Gods hands now but always in your heart and they are the two best places to be. I bet he is telling God how lucky he was to have great parents, a great brother,girlfriend and friends.The people that will pay tribute to him today are testament to that. I pray God holds your heart today and gives you peace.
