Helen,
I just can't tell you how sorry I am for the loss of your son. It just doesn't seem fair. You are such a truly good person and friend. It just really hurts for you to have to go through this.
I love you and will be in touch,
Julia

Dear Lawson family,
We continue to keep you in our prayers. In remembering Gene, I can't help but think about his part in Heavens Gates, jumping up and down at the entrance to heaven! He acted the part so convincingly here...I can see him jumping in heaven now! Also the image of the new grandson, sleeping peacefully on Gene's chest during choir practice...gentleness and love...that is Gene. We love you.
