Lynda & Family,



I am so saddened to hear of the loss of your precious Angel. My son attends Hynes Elementary School. I had no idea that the oh so cute little girl on the poster was your daughter. Our hearts go out to you, your husband, and your daughter.



"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort."

2 Corinthians 1:3-6



While any loss is a terrible pain to bear, the loss of a child is truly a heavy load to carry. May your Angel find peace in Heaven. We are praying for you all to find strength at this difficult time, and that He will help get you through it.



Take Care and God Bless,



Wanda Jackson-Duncan

Linda:



I just saw this and wanted to express how sorry I am to hear of your loss of your Angel child.



My daughter is in first grade at Hynes Elementary School and she came home last week and told me the little girl at her school who was ill passed away. I've seen Lexi's picture but never knew this was your daughter. This world is so small.



There are no words that can heal the heart at a time like this. But know that prayers are being sent for you and your family as he can do what we can't. God Bless you and your family in your time of healing.

Lynda, Kerry & The Llopis Family,



I was sadden to hear of Lexi's passing, and my prayers are with you and your family. I know that Lexi is smiling down on all of us. She was a beautiful little girl who touched our family in a special way. I do not know how to tell Cheron because Lexi was her "Best Friend". We were looking at pictures of Lexi's 7th birthday just last week, and Cheron asked when she could go play with her.



MAY GOD RICHLY BLESS AND KEEP YOUR FAMILY - OUR DEEPEST SYMPAHTY
