Wayne,

I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. We will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely,

Dad

As I so often read to you from one of our favorite books; "I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, As long as I'm living my baby you'll be." And so it is with Isabelle...

Our time apart is only temporary, and I await the day that we are reunited in the presence of our God.

Ready!

My son and I both had the privilege of working with Jared Nelson as EMT's. It is not only a tragic loss to his family and friends but also to all the patients he took care of so well. Isabelle, your father was a good and caring medic who always delivered the best of care to his patients and was a great partner and friend. He always spoke of the love he had for you and your mom. We will miss him. May God bless you and all your family.

Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea." -Psalm 46:1-2 Jared was my best friend when I was younger, and I will miss him dearly. I know you will miss him even deeper. Have strength and have faith.

I met Jared one day in parking lot at grocery. He had just gotten off work. My son worked at fire dept with him. I told him my husband was in hospital. He told me his dad was ill. We talked for quite a bit. What a wonderful young man. You could tell he loved his family so much. I was devastated when my son said he had died. You are blessed to have had this young man in your lives. Some people live a lifetime and are very very wealthy but never know the kind of love this man exemplified.
