Dear Reese,
You will be sadly missed by everyone. We add things to people's lives alot of times, and don't realize all of the good things that comes from just knowing that person. You have touched many just from knowing you.
....To The Family......
Our deepest sympathy for your loss. One great thing he did have was his belief in God above....his love and care for his family. That is something you will remember and be able to hold onto until you get to see him once again.
May God Bless you and keep you in the depths of His comfort during this time.
