Hi to each of you! My heart still is so sad and I have days of sorrow still. My oldest son died on January 20, 2024 and I miss him so much! i wanted to thank each of you that has prayed for him over the years when I asked for prayer. He lived a life of off and on substance abuse! He tried to beat it but his flesh was drenched in bondage to this evil that is covering our land and killing our people in the United States of America! He did ask The Lord to save his soul and we put him in 6 rehabs . but the pull of the flesh for the substance abuse was a bondage that he never overcome. we loved him so much through all of the years of this going on. He was 52 years old and his life hed good in it BUT was waisted on all that he did.

I agree with Karen, my heart breaks for you. I am so very sorry for your loss.

Aris, my heart breaks for you and your family. And I know that it is only harder on you knowing that there are so many others in your shoes. I understand how much harder it is also being a pastor's wife. but know that God loves you and has welcomed him into Heaven and you will have a wonderful reunion. You definitely will be covered in prayers for comfort and strength.

I am so very sorry to read this. Addiction is a terrible thing. My heart goes out to you and your family. Look after yourselves.

I am so sorry! I do not know when anyone in our government will care enough to stop this POISON from coming into our country! How many good people have to die before an effort to stop it will be made? It is affecting so many and it is evil and it needs to be stopped! 2 of my high school friends I have learned in the last 4 months have over dosed and died it makes me so angry! They hassle people more about smoking cigarettes which are still legal the last I checked but yet they are legalizing pot and mushrooms it is like we are living in Bizzaro world!

Aris my condolences to you and your family. Addiction is a illness and a extremely difficult one for the family to cope with. My thoughts are with you

Arisann, I am so sorry for this hard loss. I will be praying for you in the weeks ahead as you learn to live this new, strange life without him and his problems. God bring you peace and wonderful memories of earlier times. With love, Betsey

Aris, of course you will be in my prayers. Addiction is like a chain that just doesn't want to break. Bless you and your family for all that you went through and are still going through. Lots of hugs, good thoughts and prayers you way. Laura
