Lynn, Adam, & Abbie
I am so sorry for your loss. I know that there are no comforting words to say that will make you feel better. Just know that he is in a place now where he will feel no more pain or sorrow. He is in God's loving arms and is being held gently; seek comfort in knowing that. God says, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." Seek Him out daily for peace, strength, and understanding. Your family is in my prayers daily.
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Phillipians 4:13

I just wanted to say how much we will miss Chip. I was sorry I could not be there to pay my respects. He will be remembered with love always. Such a great cousin, person and Man. I will remember his sweet smile , so handsome, so full of life. My sympathies to all of you for such a great loss. It is times like these that words seem so inadequate. I pray that you will be comforted and that you know how much your family here in Florida loves all of you. This reminds us all what's reallly important.... that is and always will be family. How blessed we are to have each other...to love each other if even for a little while.
With love always,
