Brenda and family,
I do not have adequate words for you and your family. I'm sorry doesn't seem good enough. I have thought and prayed for your family so much since we heard of John's death. It was so shocking to us, as we have been seeing a lot of John lately at the boy's ball practices. He was out on the field helping at the last one. He was having a good time.
Brenda, I'm sure the loss is unbearable for you and Bruce. I have not lost a child, but my sister has, and I know what she went through and still is after 8 years. And Alex, losing her life partner and the father of her sons, and then the precious boys themselves have not left my mind. Even your other boys losing thier brother, and your Mom and Trisha, as well as Mr. and Mrs. Stewart. It is a tragedy for your family and I hope you know there are people praying for all of you.
Joel is feeling very bad for John. If John would like to come over and play anytime, PLEASE call me. I would be happy to take the other boys, too. Anything, anytime.
Donna Owens
