It's never easy for those who are left behind, but when you lose someone so unexpectedly, we all feel the shock. May it help to know how many people share your sorrow and stand with you in the time of need. May God ease your pain.

Hey Family,
I know this is rough but we will get through it. We have to be there for one another. Remember that God orders our steps so we can't question why this happened so tragically. Just remember all of the crazy and fun times we had with him. You were guaranteed at least 1 good laugh. He was one of a kind. I know it hurts but just give it time and ask the Lord for strength.

Be strong

Love
Miss Anna and Kendrick
