My dear sweet Sis. I am so sorry that you have to go through this. I know your heart is breaking. Remember to be absent in life is to be present with the Lord. Lannie is dancing the streets of gold. In time your grief will lessen but his memory will never fade. Remember the footprints in the sand God’s got you. As Dad always said trust and obey and all will be okay.
Love you so much
Dorean
