I am so saddened by your loss, it is tragic to have a child die, no matter the age. May God comfort all of you as you mourn his passing. I can tell he was loved Pat Luecking Mode
ReplyDeleteThat is really sad to hear about people passing away. The only thing I can really think about though is if the funeral home took care of them. I really do think of that and hope that the family does well.

My cousin, my friend of old... I love you Josh. I will miss you always. I will pray for you always. I'm so sorry that happened to you. I'm so sorry your smile was faded too soon........ senseless death, justice will come due.... to the creature who so thoughtlessly pulled a trigger aimed at you. Joshua Lee Luecking: a lover of life, caged by the traps and chains in life, but always trying, always smiling. Now free.... to fly Free Bird.
