Greg CJ Gabriel and your entire family this is just as hard for me as it is for you. Toni and I have been friends for years. She was Tyler's godmother as I am Gabriel's. I spoke with Toni just 2 weeks ago as we shared in bereavment for my aunt. She has always been a friend that you can count on. Toni's passing has been overwhelming for me, however, I know that God makes no mistakes and will guide me through this test just as he will guide you.I will continue to keep your family in my prayers and pray Gods strength for you. Just know that even though I may not be there with you physically I am there in spirit.
