Dawnielle and David,
I am so sad to read of your fathers passing. I remember the nights in middle school I used to come stay the night with you and get scared and your dad would make me feel at home and part of the family so I wouldn't be scared anymore. Since high school graduation we have lost touch and I just want you both to know that I am thinking about you. Your entire family is in my heart and I am praying for all of you.
