I went to school with your husband/father for many years and I want you to know how funny he was without ever trying. He was a good man I know your time with him was way to short but I hope you have enough good memories to last you all a life time. Knowing Lee this is so.......God Bless and keep you.I am sorry for your loss no time can ever erase it. But one thing i know your husband and father would want you all to be happy. Death can not sever the bond of love it remains long after may you all feel it for a lifetime God Bless and have you in his care.

Dear Krystal and family,

Please know that you and your children, as well as your husband's extended family, remain in the thoughts and prayers of our church family. There are no words or understanding of why this happened to your family, no words to ease your pain and loneliness, but I pray that our loving God will give you the strength you need at this time, the love that only He can provide and that each day will become a bit better for you.

In Christ's love,

We can not express in words our deepest sorrows except to say, we are praying that the peace of God that "passeth all understanding" will be of help in this time of grieving. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.

With love in Christ,
