The family will be in my prayers. May God be with you at this time and may He wrap His loving arms around you all and give you His peace.

    Heartfelt condolences to Katie and the whole family- knowing that this a trying time for them. Believing for the “Greater;” God to intervene. Praying and contending for this truth to be so implemented in their lives: “God’s will is simply for heaven’s reality to become earth’s reality.” Sympathy upon sympathy. Blessings upon blessings.
