Alex

July 2, 2010 - It has been five years since you have been gone, but you still dwell in our hearts. We know that Heavenly Father had work for you to do and that is why you left us at such an early age. You had just had your third birthday three months and a few days prior. We all miss you and love you. We want you to know that we think of you often and know that you were one of Heavenly Father's valiant children. We know that we will see you again and that this time on earth is so short compared to the eternities. You have already met probably all of our ancestors and know how the puzzle all fits. Your mom and I are trying to figure out that puzzle but know that someday all the pieces will fit. I took your cousin, Ryan, to two of the grave sites so that he could help me with genealogy. There are some people that we need help with though Alex. Can you help us figure out how Sarah Browning fits into the puzzle? We believe she does and I think it has to do with Alice Newcombe's side of the family, but I am not sure. Your brother Adrian is getting big now, but you already know that. I am confident that you still stay in touch with him. I know he felt lost after you passed away. Leah just got back from a trip to Peru. Imagine that. Thanks for helping to keep her safe. Daniel is in scouts and he and your dad went on a father/son camp out. It rained but I think they had fun. Rachael is doing well in school as well. Your mom and dad miss you as do all of us but we are striving each day to do what we need to so that we can all be together as a family in the eternities. So, until then Alex, continue to watch over us and help us along the way. Love and miss you, Gramma Betsy
