Peace and strength to you and your beautiful girls. I found you through Lori at Miss Melanoma, so I don't know you, but I want you to know that I'm praying for you tonight, and have lit a candle for Addie, Ella and you. So trite, it seems, compared to what you are going through, but my prayer is that somehow you will recieve at least a tiny bit of extra strength or peace.

I can't sleep tonight and you are on my mind. I am hoping and praying for any way that God might ease your pain. Know that I am lifting you in prayer, now and in the difficult days ahead.

This was by far the hardest funeral to attend.All of us having lost 2 brothers already, it was by far a million times harder.To see such a fine young man as Sean laid to rest, Kelly and you saying your last goodbyes to Sean, Kent Kevin Shelly Boo Boo Grandma and Terry losing a family member and hardest of all for his cousin and friend Josh who wrote and played that beautiful song on his guitar just for Sean broke everybodies hearts.But in the end we all know he is with Our Lord now and we will see him soon as promised.We now have to look to each other for strength until our day comes when we will all be joined together once again.

"I thank Thee,O Lord that Thou hast so set eternity within my heart that no earthly thing can ever satisfy me wholly.I thank Thee that every present joy is so mixed with sadness and unrest as to lead my mind upwards to the contemplation of a more perfect blessedness.And above all I thank Thee for the sure hope and promise of an endless life which Thou hast given me in the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ my Lord.May the Lord watch over us and have mercy on our souls during this time.Amen
