Vicki and girls,
I keep thinking of the verse, " The Lord is near to the broken hearted." More than anything, my prayer for you is that you will not just know this in your heads, but your heavenly Father will show up bigger and more beautiful than He ever has during this sad time. His ear is bent low with compassion. Continue to pour your hearts out to Him and we will continue to lift you up in prayer. Love you so very much! . Amy Adkins

Just wanted to say Vicky how much your husband loved you. I worked with him and he fold me so many loving stories about you and your girls. One of them is he was in the garage putter around and he found a bottle of windsong that he had retrieved out of the garbage. He saved to Remember the day he fell in love with you. So every so often he smell the empty bottle to remember that day. Are heart pours nothing but love for you and your family. He was a hard working man who always put his family first. I have so many stories of him about you all. Be strong Vicky and family.
