Life's Hardest Struggle

The 32-year-old son of some friends died unexpectedly on Saturday.

Our prayers this week have focused on our friends -- a lovely couple. Their loss is devastating.

Lew and I attended the funeral this morning.

What do you say to parents who have lost a child? We offered tearful hugs and the promise of continued prayer.

The mobs of people surrounding them and the busyness of these days will end soon.

Life will continue.

Yet their son will still be gone.

It's important for friends to reach out to them not only now but in those long days ahead.... So we'll be in touch.

 

Rest in Peace, D.R.S.

So sorry to hear of your friend's son's death, Tracy. I'm glad that they have you and Lew by their side.
