My deepest condolences. May these few words from the Holy Scriptures bring you comfort in your time of grief...
John 11:32-45
32And so Mary, when she arrived where Jesus was and caught sight of him, fell at his feet, saying to him: “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”33Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping and the Jews that came with her weeping, groaned in the spirit and became troubled;34and he said: “Where have YOU laid him?” They said to him: “Lord, come and see.”35Jesus gave way to tears.36Therefore the Jews began to say: “See, what affection he used to have for him!”37But some of them said: “Was not this [man] that opened the eyes of the blind man able to prevent this one from dying?”

Now Jesus raised his eyes heavenward and said: “Father, I thank you that you have heard me.42True, I knew that you always hear me; but on account of the crowd standing around I spoke, in order that they might believe that you sent me forth.”43And when he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice: “Laz´a·rus, come on out!”44The [man] that had been dead came out with his feet and hands bound with wrappings, and his countenance was bound about with a cloth.

Hey y'all, they say every time a child dies another is born. Let us praise the Lord for uniting Sawyer with his great grand parents and welcome another one of God's blessing into his world. Sawyer was a crown jewel to all who loved him, no two ways about it. I send my sincerest condolences to all who are grieving and pray for everyone touched by Sawyer’s passing.
I am so terribly sorry for your loss. Like others, no words can come close to helping you through this tough time, but just know that you are in my prayers and thoughts. This loss has really made me think and look at my children and just CHERISH them! You stay strong momma and know that God is with you in this tough time. RIP baby Sawyer <3 <3
Love always,

Lauren, my heart breaks into pieces for you guys. You all have been through so much in the last year and a half. Sawyer was such a beautiful boy and so lucky to have such a loving family for the time he was here. I know he's watching over you and Grace. I know we don't talk much but if there is ever anything I can do for your family, please don't hesitate to ask. I'll keep you all in my thoughts.
