This is the most difficult message that I have evert written. Because of my illness I will not meet you until Heaven my love! You are the only one of my (#8) of 9 grandchildren that this is true. I never even got to see but a picture. One day that will change!. Now you can spend time with your Aunt Trisha. God will let you know how much I love you. All my love to Kira and Jon I really know how they feel. Grammy

I spent my pregnancy alongside Kira. I had my daughter the day that her water broke. It almost felt as if their little friendship was so determined by fate, that he said “Hold on girls, I’m coming too!” When I tell you this is so unfair- our children were best friends by fate. This child was wanted, loved, and fought for. We wanted these babies, we dreamt of our children. It is so unfair that this happened. His mother showed more strength and perseverance in fighting for her child’s health and comfort than I will ever fathom being able to put forth. As a mother and a friend, my soul and being ache for Lucas’s parents. This loss is felt. This loss is unfair. This loss hurts. Lucas was a smiley, happy, perfect, strong little boy until the very end. He was the perfect first best friend for my daughter, and maybe they only met through facetime, but we had dreams of everything this world had to offer him just beyond this chapter. While his story ended so soon, and we didn’t get to live those possibilities, just holding his hands and singing to him was an experience I feel blessed with. Thank you to the Vandyke family for granting me time with your son during his final moments. I am so truly sorry for your loss. Merry part, and merry meet again, my sweet friend.

Dear Kira, Jon and families. I was so very sorry to hear about Lucas transition. He is holding on to Jesus hands. He was a strong, happy, handsome fighter from day one. My prayer for all of you is that God will strengthen you and give you peace, surround you with love, and know that you will see him again. I have known Tabby and Tom from Victory. May God guard your hearts with the beautiful memoires of the time you had with him. God be with you all. Much love. Rev Martha Dorris

Penny McKenney lit a candle and writes,
Dear Kira & Jon, No words can express how I hurt for you. But I also know Lucas in his short time was and is and forever will be for that greater purpose that only God truly understands. As I said to you before he came with a story that doesn’t end here. I’m very proud of both of you and what a blessing he was. God chose you both to be his mommy and daddy that will never change, I know you are so proud of him in more ways then one. Think of the bridge of Love and how he brought many together, far and wide and that each one will hold a special place in their heart and spirts for Lucas. In some strange way I have felt such a deep spiritual connection with him, that only falls within the realm of why we are all here to begin with on planet earth. We all truly do come with a story and for some it takes a lifetime to figure out, as where others just know and that’s how I feel not only for my own mortality but also with your sweet boy. Always keep in the back of your thoughts, “ it’s never Goodbye “ Just see you later” I love you both. Lucas will always be waiting for you forever. 💙
