My prayers and love surround your family as you say good-bye (for now) to your dear son, Alex. I hope you find peace in knowing that God is close to the broken hearted. I am sure your hearts are broken. I do believe that Alex is more free than he has ever been in the loving presence of God. May Jesus’ healing peace touch your hearts during this time of such loss.
