How does one find the right words to say to a. Mother who has just lost her child...to a family who will forever have a missing piece to their puzzle...to a sweet baby girl who will wonder how things could have been for years to come..? I definitely don't have the answer. I just pray you find comfort in God's merciful embrace. Thinking of you .

I remember when Saxxon first came to Northeast middle school , he was a cool friend to have. I remember the last time I saw him in Muhlenberg for summer school. Every time I look at my diploma it reminds me of Saxxon because me and him went through summer school together in order for us to graduate Muhlenberg . Prayers to his family and friends.

Lisa, I don't know what I can say that will take away the pain you are feeling right now. I know what he meant to you because of our talks we had concerning our sons. If any time you need a shoulder to lean on or someone to talk to I am here for you. You know I love you. Just keep looking at the beautiful granddaughter and you will see your son. He will always be with you, he lives within her. Remember, I am here for you.
I love you
