My thoughts and prayers are wtih you Lindsey and the Cannon family. Kyle gets to spend his 25th birthday in the best place possible! Pretty awesome. God has a time and place for everything.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
1There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
2a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
6a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.

Love you Lindsey

Colby, Amber and Lane!

Kyle you were such amazing guy with the purest heart...I am so lucky to have met you when living in Germany. You were a great mentor to Sean and gave him the best advice. Thank you for being so genuine to my family when we were having a difficult time in Europe. Your memory will live on forever and I forever will hold it in my heart.
RIP Kyle Cannon...see you again sometime.
Love,
The Lehman family.

PS. THANK YOU FOR CARVING THE THANKSGIVING TURKEY WHEN NO ONE ELSE WOULD...YES I DID SNEAK A PICTURE!! (:

If tears could build a stairway,
And memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to Heaven
And bring you home again.
