Laurie, Doug, Taylor and Sam,
Chase was a wonderful sweet boy in my first grade classroom .His sweet smile still is the same in his senior picture. I picture him in our Snow White play. He was so confident. I was so fortunate to get to know you Laurie , not just as a fellow colleague , but as such an amazing mother. I was blessed to have Taylor and Chase. They were blessed as well to have you. God must have had something for Chase in mind. My heart is broken for you all. My prayers and love are with you.

"For my understanding isn't your understanding, neither are your ways my ways," Isaiah 55:8 reads. It's impossible for us to understand how something so tragic can happen to such a wonderful young man and beautiful family, people who God loves so very much. So when I don't understand God I just hold on to what I do know about God. That he is a loving, merciful, and gracious God. He loves Chase and the family so very much. I would like to encourage all Chase's friends and those who knew him to visit the Varney family to share your memories, stories, and good times with Chase and what that meant to you. This will bring so much healing and joy for you and the family.
