Not that there are any words that can possibly heal your broken heart over the loss of your loved one, these words have given us comfort at many times over the years and we wish to share them with you.We pray The Heavenly Father will give you and the whole family peace and comfort during this time and into the future. The Serenity Prayer God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Love to all Bill and Diana Adkins, Dave, Donna and Kyle Kocsis and Dave and Carol Pusty

Dawnetta, Alvin & Jarred....
Words can not express my sympathy for your tremendous loss. I pray that the Lord above touches your heart and provides you with the comfort you seek. Noone can imagine the heartache you must be experiencing and my heart goes out to you and your family. I wish there was something I could say or do but I know there isn't anything humanly possible to fill the void that is left behind. Just know that our thoughts and mostly Prayers are with you during this most difficult and trying time. We hold dear the fond memories of Josh and that big bright smile of his.
May God be with you...
Soni & Glenn
