Stephen's family,
Please accept our deepest condolences on the loss of Stephen. I was so thrilled to hear from Ms. Jody but so sorrowful to receive the sad news. My prayer is for each of you to grow closer to the Lord and realize that none of us is guaranteed more than this day. There is a Jesus who loves each of you dearly and is right there beside you at this moment. Please turn to Him as you cry out in your loss. Don't waste a moment of your life but have abundant life as you serve Him alone. He will reveal Himself to each of you. Jesus alone is our Hope. Praying for much fruit to come out of Stephen's death and Anthony's injuries as you each rededicate your life to the One and Only who creates and gives life.
God works all things together for good for those who love Him and who are called according to His purpose. Ro 8:28
Blessings to each of you,
Barbara Franklin

Dear members of Stephen's family, especially Delia, David, and Jesus (Chuy),
I want you to know that I am praying for all of you. Losing Stephen at this young age is so hard for Christina and Maya. I know you will be there for them during this sad time. I just got Mrs. Barbara's (Franklin)email address yesterday from a another friend, so I am writing her and telling her about Stephen...I hope my message reaches her. I know that she will also be praying for you all. We remember when Chuy had his accident and how we prayed for his recovery. We don't understand why some are taken home to the Lord at an early age...this old world is a dangerous place. Know that the Lord will help you through this time of sorrow and missing Stephen. Mrs. Barbara and I have special memories of teaching Stephen, Chuy, David, Anthony (hope he's doing ok), Martin, and Nina in Sunday School at the Salvation Army.
God bless you all,
Jody McCulley

Delia, Last time I seen you was at your mother's service. I am so sorry to hear of your loss of your son Stephen. I remember when he was just a baby, all of our kids were babies. I wish I could be in Kerrville so I can attend the funeral services, but unfortunately I am in Arizona. I moved here on June 9 of this year. So I was glad to see that I could send my condolences this way. My prayers are with you and all your family. Take care, Helen
