We will never forget the beautiful gift that you gave us, Kendal Nicole, even if we all got to enjoy her for only a short time. You know I say she was always a little china doll, the cutest little baby I have ever seen. Beautiful red hair, cute little pink lips and the longest eyelashes I have ever seen!!!!!! I cant imagine what you and Scott and Tyler are going through, and I am not going to pretend that I understand. What I do know is that Michelle you are one of the most amazing, strong willed women that I have ever met, and I know you will get through this in time. I know that you are afraid that people will forget about her, BUT I PROMISE YOU, WE WILL NEVER FORGET HER. She was a blessing in disguise for many people, and she has touched all of us that knew her in some way, shape or form. Please know that I think of her and you guys always, and I am always here for you when you need me. Tell Tyler that he has to come play in the snow with me! Love ya girl, and I miss you terribly- M
My deepest condolences. May these few words from the Holy Scriptures bring you comfort in your time of grief...
John 11:32-45

Now Jesus raised his eyes heavenward and said: “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. 42 True, I knew that you always hear me; but on account of the crowd standing around I spoke, in order that they might believe that you sent me forth.” 43 And when he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice: “Laz´a·rus, come on out!” 44 The [man] that had been dead came out with his feet and hands bound with wrappings, and his countenance was bound about with a cloth.
