  1. Romans 8:38-39
    For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

  2. It’s hard to believe he’s gone. I knew him from kindergarten until I moved after the 9th grade. It was never a boring bus ride to and from school. This world will never be the same without him.
