I am a LITH community member and have no connection to the family; however, I think about you daily and pray that you're finding strength and enough emotional support to get through such an unimaginable time. My heart goes out to you. Stay strong.
I still feel pain for them,rip little angels
I miss Ariana! She was in my 2cnd grade class. She was born on my birthday. We shared a birthday.
I cry every day. Every day. My best friend. One day she was here the next day not. R.I.P. to all three of you.
RIP the kids... but you spelled Marlowe wrong. It has an 'e' at the end.
Almost a year later, my heart still aches for you and your family. Know that you are still thought of and they have not been forgotten. My heart goes out to yours.
