Laura and family,
Matt and I wanted to send our sympathies out to you. We know how hard it is to loose a family member and we're here if you need anything. I buried my brother in 2009 and my best friend in may of this year. They were both hard to deal with.
Our prayers and thoughts go out to you.all and may god comfort you all during this time of pain and suffering and wrap his arms around you all. It is never easy to lose a family member but it will get easier as time goes on. We'll be thinking about you this week and in the months to come and as time goes on. If you guys need anything just let us know. Still seems like yesterday I dealt with my losses and Matt buried his dad who died a year go on the 14th of November. Always remember the good times you had as a family and keep those memories alive. Your dad would want you to keep his memories of him alive as a way to remember him especially for Crystal's sake since she is so young yet and that way she will never forget her grandfather. Sending a big hug to Crystal too. Again we send our heart felt condolences and sympathies to you all with our love and if there is anything we can do please let us know.
