Mrs. McDonnell, it's me Christopher Finch. I am very sorry you had to pass away at a very young age. I was in such dismay as I heard about this. All of us will miss you very much and I'll be thinking about you so very much. I'll miss you, your family will miss you and your friends will miss you. You have a wonderful smile every day and Jesus loves you. I'm down here keeping an eye out for your daughter Kelsey to make sure that everything is okay with her and nothing goes wrong. Take care and I'll be there very soon.
May God Bless You.
Love,
