Mark and Leisa - our hearts grieve with you but we are reminded that we do not grieve as those of the world who have no hope, for our hope is in Christ Jesus, and your precious Ben is with Him now, until you meet again. We love you all and are praying for comfort and strength and peace for both of you, and Jon and Sam.
