There are no words adequate to express our deep sympathy for the indescribible loss of your son. I hope your faith will sustain you and give you strength and comfort.

It's so incredibly hard to put my thoughts and emotions regarding the loss of baby Austin into words. I have thought many times recently about holding your precious son soon after he was born and watching him sleep peacefully in my arms. And then seeing him so full of life at his birthday party. He had an amazing and infectious spirit that I will always remember.

I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. Please know that you and your family are always in my thoughts and if there is anything I can do to help in any way that I am here for you.

August 13, 2009

While I do not know you, I can only imagine the loss you are feeling. Your son is beautiful and I know that God is holding him in his arms now and loving him.
May God comfort you now and in the days ahead.
Peace, prayers and many Blessings to your family.
