Jason:

I wish I could find the right words that would make your pain go away, but I don't know what words those would be. I wish I could look at you and tell you that things would be O.K, but I can't. I wish I could turn back time and make this all a bad dream, but no one can do that. So, the only thing I can say or do is to tell you that Shawn and I will always be there for you and Ryan. We will help you when you need us. We will listen when you want to talk. We will keep Kris with us and remember her for the beautiful person she was. We will remember the smile on her face and the way she would make you smile. We will remember her everytime we look at Ryan. So long as she lives in our memories, she will never be gone. We love you very much. We will pray for you and your family. And though we cannot know your pain or erase it away, please know you can count on us to be there.
