    Dear Mike and Sherry,
    We were so sorry to hear about Luke. Losing a child is a burden no parent should ever have to bear. I hope all the good memories you have of Luke will sustain you and give you strength in the months and years ahead. He will always be a part of you both. I also hope you can find some small comfort in these words, which have always resonated with me:
    “Those we love don’t go away,
    They walk beside us every day,
    Unseen, unheard but always near
    Still loved, still missed and very dear.”
    Wishing you peace,
    Kathleen (Horne) and Steve Cornell
