Michelle & Kenny,

I want to tell you of my condolences on the passing of Cru.

I was hoping on seeing him once again when I come to town for Thanksgiving. When I met him on that afternoon last July I believed that he would truly find a way to fight through everything that was stacked against him.

I can't begin to make sense of something like this any more than you can. I am sorry for your loss.

Dearest Michelle and Kenny,
Auntie E has shared with us Cru's condition during the five months and not a day has gone by that we have not prayed for you and your family during this time in your life. We know that God's garden needed a new angle and he selected Cru to sit by his side. Words cannot express the loss of Cru, but as the days go by, you will know that Cru is taken care of and he will now watch over is Mommy and Daddy. We wish you all the love that we can give to you and remember that as days go by, each day will be better than the day before. We love you both so much.
The Driver Family
