Cindy - We are so sorry for your loss. Rickey called me from work (Classic Acura) and asked me if I had a customer named Cindy Bates - then proceeded to tell me that it was your son in the house fire that we had seen on the news.
Nothing I can say will really ease your pain at this moment, but this might help.
"Perhaps they are not stars in the sky, but rather openings where - our loved ones shine down to let us know they are happy."
I ran across this saying recently and keep going back to it......to see if it will ever help me deal with the loss of my Mother 14 mos. ago.
Remember, I'm here if you need anything or if I can help in any way.

Cindy and family,
We are so sorry for your loss. Don has been missing his Lumberton friends since we moved to Nederland, and DJ was one of them he missed the most. DJ was always such a polite kid. He will always be in our hearts, and you and your family will be in our prayers...Gina Gray, Don McCray, & Didi Simmons

My daughter was one of DJ’s friends and she has been truly touched by his death. She is trying to understand why something like this happens to such a young person. She told me of his beautiful eyes, and a time when they were talking and how he complimented her on her brown eyes. This truly had deep meaning to her. DJ will be missed. Our prayers are with you.

Hugs From Heaven
by Charlotte Anselmo
When you feel a gentle breeze
Caress you when you sigh
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From a loved one way up high.
If a soft and tender raindrop
Lands upon your nose
They've added a small kiss
As fragile as a rose.
If a song you hear fills you
With a feeling of sweet love
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From someone special up above.
If you awaken in the morning
To a bluebird's chirping song
It's music sent from Heaven
To cheer you all day long.
If tiny little snowflakes
Land upon your face
It's a hug sent from Heaven
Trimmed with Angel lace.
So keep the joy in your heart
If you're lonely my dear friend
Hugs that are sent from Heaven
A broken heart will mend.
