Sandy & Jase:
I am so sorry for your loss, and the tragedy of it all. I pray that God’s angels will sustain you and that God will grant you peace through this all. I worked with Jake at Reynolds for a short time, and he was a good kid. He never forgot me. I bumped into him once in a while in Miles City, and he always said hi to me. I cannot express in words enough how sorry I am. Know that God has really big shoulders and He will help you through this grieving process.
