Dear Angelo/Caren –
Our family extends our deepest sympathies to yours for your unexplained loss. Nothing can take away your grief at the moment. It’s a real loss and deep pain.
We can only wait for time to heal all wounds and remain trustful that we have a loving God whose plans we can never fully understand but who can only give us good things.
Baby Joseph Michael is in the best of hands. As parents, we cannot ask for a better answered prayer than to have our children go to Heaven.
May He grant you strength and comfort at this time.
