You both know how special you guys are to us and Will was also.
You will always be in our prayers. There will always be a hole in
our heart that will never be filled by anyone else.
We love you guys.

I don't know what exactly to say. I couldn't seem to believe it when I had heard that Will was in a coma. I couldn't accept it any more when I had heard that he had died. I hadn't really been around the family for the better part of the last decade and the news of Will's death made me wish that I could have found the time to visit more often. All I could think about was the little boy I remember from years ago who looked up to me like the brother he didn't have. I can recall wondering what Will would grow up to be. Now we can only imagine.

Not much time goes by that I don't have a fond memory or think of something funny that the boys have done. Either to us, the family, their friends or each other. And I know in my heart and soul our friendship with God needs to be every day just as special as Will and Tyler's. And that all our friendships new and old are part of God's plan and that our paths cross because of him.
He will also show us the way home in his love.

On my heart,

Ginger

Many tears of sadness have been shed for you and now smiles of memories are shining through

You were a gift from God that we had for a few short years He wanted you back He wanted you near

We see you all around us in our daily lives we hear your voice see your smiles and the twinkle in your eyes

You are very much missed and alive in our hearts and someday soon we will never be apart

This poem was written by my mother--
WILL OF MY HEART

Outside this morning
Before the dawn
I look up and realize
You are not gone
Your spirit is in a shooting star
That streaks across the sky
Your face in the moon
It's not ours to ask why

We are better now
Though tears are still falling
But if we listen close
The morning birds are calling
That we would be so happy
If your new home we could see
Heaven has never been
So real to me

The dawn is now breaking
Just like our hearts
Not because of where you are
But because we're apart
But we'll be faithful and be together again
And keep you close by in out hearts until then

My thoughts and prayers are with you both. My Mom reads the News and told me about your loss. I have not been able to get you off my mind. I wish I could say the words to comfort you and help you during this time. Just know you will continue to be in my prayers. May God Bless You Both, Paula

Words are inadequate to express the sympathy I am feeling for you at this time. Seems like yesterday that precious little boy was born. In case you have forgotton, I worked in the FmHA office in Paris. We moved here 6 yrs. ago. Just remember, Will is better off than we are, and we can see him again. We are also members of the Church of Christ. My prayers are with you. You were 2 of my favorite people when I worked there.
