Debbie, my heart breaks for you and your family. I have no words to comfort you but there's an old song written by Ira Stanphill, that pops into my head at this time of year and seems to be appropriate in this moment. "Many things about tomorrow I don't seem to understand.  But I know who holds tomorrow and I know who holds my hand" . Trust in the Lord for strength.  I love you and will continue to pray for you all.

After attending the celebration of Tyler's life today at First Baptist, I feel like I knew your precious son. I cannot imagine your pain but I know your faith and your memories will comfort you. Please know you are in my prayers. Trust God.

May God Comfort the family in this their time of sorry and grief.

God bless and comfort each of Tyler's family and all his many friends.

The death of a loved one is one of the most devastating experiences a human can face. At times, the loss may seem unbearable. Mourn and grieve as you must, and do not be afraid to cry, because crying serve as an emotional release. "For everything there is an appointed time, even...a time to weep."
Ecclesiastes 3:1,4.
