You can now rest, Isaac. No more pain, and you can finally dance with Michael in heaven. That would be one terrific dance! Grandpa will be there for you and lead you around, so you can meet everyone. We send your family our condolences! Rachel and Mike, you raised one very special boy!

Randall and I both send are condolences to you both and your family. I feel so blessed to have got the opportunity to be his babysitter when he was younger and through your videos posted on facebook as he got older. Your son was such a brave boy and I'll never forget him.
