I did not know this young man, but wanted to tell the family, that I am so sorry for their loss. A man this young and with a wife and four small children always touches my heart because of their loss. I know the family is devastated. It was time for God to call him home. He is in a better place, but that don’t stop the grief. We don’t understand why, but we can be assured his family will be reunited with him in Heaven someday. Then they will be together forever.
