I am devastated to hear of the loss of your beautiful son. My heart is broken for you and your family. We lost our son, too, and the pain is so excruciating. It hurts beyond words. May he rest in peace and know that his heart, soul and spirit is with you every breath of your life. I don't know you but my beloveds' son's father does. I am thinking of you during this tough time. Sending my condolences.
