I can’t imagine the heartbreak your going through. I have seen over the years how you have given your life to take care of Chad, the Lord says “blessed are those who give their life for their friends†you are one of those and I know Gods Word is true. You surely deserve that blessing. I’m praying for peace and comfort for you in the days ahead and that the tears you shed will be with a smile remembering those precious moments and faith in knowing it won’t be long til you see each other again, that moment is something to look forward to. My thoughts and prayers to you my friend/

It was an honor to be able to teach and love Chad in school and out. Your family will always hold a huge piece of my heart. I miss running into him at Walmart or wherever you guys were and he get up and hug me. Fingers through the hair. Rest In Peace sweet boy, Chad.

My name is Martin and, although I didn’t know Chad’s family personally, please accept my deepest condolences on the loss of your loved one. The Bible can offer great comfort in these difficult times. When Jesus was on earth he spoke about a wonderful time when we will see our dead loved ones again. This promise can be found at John 5:28,29. I hope you find comfort in these words. If you would like to learn more about the resurrection or the condition of the dead, please visit jw.org. Once again I am so sorry for your loss. Martin Grant skippergrumby@aol.com Paris, FranceÂ
