Yolanda Jones aka Yoyo says
In deep sympathy for a loss of which few parents have experienced. One regret is that I never got the opportunity to know my little cousin. In knowing you, I can imagine the great young man you had raised. I love you and wish I could physically be there for you. Just remember that I am here for spiritually and God is ALWAYS here for YOU!
When the pain is too much to bear, remember that God NEVER gives you more than you can handle and Christ bears what you cannot handle on your own.
