I leave my deepest symathy to the family, I love you and I know that he's in a better place. Georgie was definitely an older brother to me i consider him my blood and to know that he is gone deeply sorrows me but gives me joy because i know he is no longer feeling the pain that he once endured. Be encouraged!Love you always!

When David's servants told him the child had died, The bible said he arosed from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his apparel, and came into the house of the Lord and worshipped.
David said, "I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me".

TO THE BRETT FAMILY:
I SEND MY LOVE AND DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO ALL OF YOU. TO LOSE A LOVED ONE CAN TAKE A TOLL ON YOU BUT WITH YOUR STRONG FAITH IN GOD HE WILL EASE YOUR MIND AND COMFORT YOU IN YOUR SADDEST MOMENTS. ALICIA I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART AND IF THERE IS ANYTHING I CAN DO LET ME KNOW, BECAUSE WHENEVER I WAS DOWN YOU HELP PICK ME UP AND KNOW THAT I AM ALWAYS HERE TO RETURN THE FAVOR.

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

“Consigning these mortal remains to earth, secure in the knowledge that what we place in the ground is no more now a man - but a seed - which, after the winter of our discontent, will come forth again to meet us. And we will know him then for what he was and is - a Prince!”
O death where is thy sting, oh grave where is thy victory. Our Prayers are with you
