He was a Major in the US Army, and after returning from a tour of duty in Korea, he had cardiac valve replacement surgery at Walter Reed Hospital. Later his condition deteriorated and he died in the early morning hours, before his son and wife could see him for a last time. He was only 39 years old. Our grandson is only 8 years old, and is devastated. Please pray that God speaks to our daughter’s and grandson’s hearts, comforts them and allows them to accept this loss.

Love,
Jacqueline

Oh my Jacqueline. My heart goes out to your family. Will keep them in prayer. I know God will give them comfort if they seek His help and guidance. I pray there will be others around that will help supporting them in the situation. To some it might sound lame to rely on God for our strength, but it is the most sound thing anyone can do. Enjoy this video...It is Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir, (my favorite choir).They were performing at La. prison. But the words are phenomenal!!! Hope you can understand them.

You and your family will be in my prayers. It will take some time but with the Lord's help and guidance they will pick up the pieces and be happy again. He was so young and your grandson is very young also to lose a parent. May the Lord keep each of you closely in his arms surrounded by love of each other. The shock will get them through this and May the Lord give them the love and courage to accept and get over the pain and go on with the everyday living and just remember the good times they spent together. Hugs, Linda

I have goosebumps reading this. What an awful tragedy.

I am really, really sorry. I can only imagine their sorrow. May the Lord give them peace over this, and after a good period of grieving, may they be able to go on with their lives. May the Lord show you all how to help your little grandson. I will definitely be praying for all of you.

Jacqie my dear - I am so sorry to hear this news - your daughter and grandson will be in my prayers - there is nothing that I can say - that would change how they feel - but I do know that they have a tough row to hoe ahead of them - we never know what the reason's for these sort of things - but their life will be forever changed - they wil need your strength to help them get through this trail. Have them pray for guidence, as we are for them.

Jacqui, I'm so very sorry to hear of this loss to your family. It's especially hard when someone so young is struck down. May God hold you all in the palm of his hand as your daughter and son try and start to live without the most important man in their daily lives.
