Dear Linda, Bruce, & Sarah,

My deepest heartfelt sympathy to all of you on the tragic loss of your beloved son, and brother.

I am truly sorry...

I know how difficult this grief is for all of you to bear, and thinking of you hurting this way, makes my heart hurt also. We can never really know how another feels - Please know that my concern for you is deep and heartfelt.

No one should have to bury their child...

I just wish there was something that I could do to take away this sorrow - But, I know I cannot.

All I can do is extend my loving thoughts, my heartfelt sympathy and pray that you and your family receive some solace.

Love,

Dear Linda, Bruce and Sarah,

We are so deeply saddened to hear about the tragic death of your dear son and brother, David. The last time I saw him he was a 4 year old who could name every car on the road, but from reading the entries he sounds like he grew up to be a caring, fun young man. We are so sorry that you are now left with only the memories. We will keep you all in our prayers and hope that some day those memories will comfort you.
