Brad and Lexi, My heart broke for you when I heard of Caden's passing. He was such a sweet boy and I feel blessed that I got to know him. You have been, and will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers and know that God is watching over you in this time of sorrow, as he welcomes Caden into his arms.

Words can not express the sadness that our family feels for you with the loss of Caden. We may never understand why such a beautiful little guy was taken from you so suddenly, but I truly believe there was a reason. God knows why and I look forward to the day when it will make sense. In heaven, there is no sadness, no grieving, no heartache, only joy and happiness. I believe that your little Caden is looking down at you right now, smiling and saying, Mom and Dad, it's okay, I'm here with Jesus.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you struggle through this tough time.
