Nancy Fritz says
Bob and Gaylesue and family, I have felt a hole in my heart since Michael called me that night. Like Grandma Anna said, “No one should have to bury a child.” I can’t imagine your level of grief. I am praying hard for God to strengthen you and give you understanding, even though right now that seems impossible. I badly wanted to attend to be supportive (plus I miss you both) but was quite ill. I know you have many, many memories of your beautiful daughter Gina throughout her life, and I pray that those give you strength and keep your memories alive through love. God bless you both.
