Theresa and Jessica and Family I'm so sorry for your loss words get express the pain I know your going through but I'm here if you need to talk. I know it's hard on you right now and you miss him like crazy right now but just remember he's not suffering anymore and he's always with you in your heart and your memories. When the time is right and the grieving starts to get less watch and listen for signs of him because he will be there with you always watching over you and your family. May God wrap you in his arms and cover you in his wings as you are going through this tough time because he is showing you that he's here for you and protecting you and your family. God Bless Amen
