Such a beautiful baby. Cliff and Kathy, I hurt so for you and your family to lose such a treasure. Keep those memories close, remember him when you gather. Years lessen but can never take that pain away. Praying for Jesus to comfort and give you strength. Turn Tim him and let Him carry you. 💔🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Your old friend, Bennie Webb

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
This verse reminds us that God is near in times of deep grief.
We here at Live Oak Junior High are praying with and for you!
God bless,
