It is always so difficult when you lose someone you love.  We recently lost one of our former students last week.  He made it to 24 years old and he wasn’t even supposed to live one.  Now you wanna talk about God’s love.  He was unbelievable, he always was smiling and playing and just so happy.  My heart dropped when I heard the news yesterday and I immediately wanted to know every detail.  We came to find out that we missed the memorial but from talking with his mom, it was a celebration of life.  There were so many lives that he touched and even though he could not speak, his crown of life reached so many hearts.  You could always count on him to brighten your day no matter what you were going through. As hard as it is to lose someone, and we havent seen him for two years, the pain is deep.  However, through the grieving we come to realize he lived a good life and Jesus wanted him to be home.  I know I will be excited for the day I go home when I can see him running and kicking a ball and talking and singing.  His legacy is one of love and I pray I can work towards loving others the way he did.  Love you, Lee.. Enjoy Jesus… Amen!
