Zendrick & Khristina,



We were so sorry to hear today of your loss. We are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. We were so glad to have met little Zen when he was a baby. May God give you both comfort in this difficult time.

Zendrick,

We pray that your heart heals and instead of feelings of emptiness, we hope you see the precious and unconditional love that your son brought you. No easy way to deal with what has happened we imagine, but hold on to God's unchanging hand and we promise he will bring you through. Anytime you need anything you know we are here with open arms. We love you!!

Zendrick, It has taken me a while to write not knowing the right thing to say to you and Zendrick Jr's mom. I have been trying to think of what someone could say to me to make me feel better, if I were to have to endure such pain. I still don't know. I just wish that I could have had the chance to meet Zendrick Jr. I want to let you know that by me missing our last family reunion I missed that chance, but it opened my eyes to let me know take nothing for granite. It is very important no matter how you feel about where a family reunion is held or what time of the year, or who you like or dislike, keep you from going and meeting family members you have not met before and hug and enjoy those who you have known for years. I know you will be able to go on because you are a strong person. Zendrick Jr is in a better situation then all of us, he has committed no sin, he is an innocent angel and we all know where he has gone and that is the best thing of all. I Love You

Your Cousin

Zendrick, words can't express the way I felt when I heard about the loss of your child. Though everyone knows that this is a hard time for you and little Zendrick's mom, I know it feels like no one could possibly understand and feel what is going on inside of you right now. This life changing event is one that we all will never be able to understand, but I do know that though your child is not here physically, that he will live eternally in your mind, body, spirit, and soul. Make him the strength of your life and think about the joy that he brought to your family and this world whenever you feel like you can't go on. Zendrick jr. is a part of you that will live on in a higher place. GOD is your strength! Keep praying and believing in GOD in order to endure in this difficult time. Love ya like a little sister, Shaherah

Love,

No matter how dark the clouds seem, remember that the sun will shine. The Bible tells us that weeping would endure for a night, but joy would come in the morning. Have faith that through your misery, God is still in control and one day, by and by, we will share eternity with those we love.Our prayers are with you.

Fred and Lil Zen's Parents:

I feel your sadness, hopelessness and pain. I hear your unanswered and unasked questions, the biggest being "why". This fog you're living in right now will lift and the sun will shine again for you. Be encouraged - God lost His only Son, too. He loves you and will keep you through this. We praise Him for Lil Zen and all his sweetness. We praise Him for you who loved this child the most.

I was sadden to hear of your lost. I know this is a very difficult time for you, but remember God is in his holy place.



I am a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.

Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all the day.

Psalms 71:7-8



I will hold you and your family in my prayers.

Zendrick Sr.



I am saddened by your loss. I felt a profound loss when my mother passed away suddenly. I know that loss of a family member can be very hurting - though by the grace of God things heal in due course of time.



You and your family are in my prayers. I quote the 23 Psalm and pray that you find comfort.





The 23rd Psalm



The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;

He leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul;

He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil: for thou art with me;

Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;

Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,

And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Be Blessed.
