Dear Debbie, Tim and family,

I was so saddened to read about the loss of your dear son Ryan. I know all too well the heartache that your family is going through. I don&t know if you knew or not, but we lost our 22 year old Haitian daughter to suicide in June this past year. I want you to know that my heart understands your pain and I have been praying for you. Lean hard into the arms of Jesus. Keep your eyes on His promises and the truth of the gospel. I will try to call you in a couple of weeks to chat, but if you want to talk with me before then, please please call me. My cell phone number is 404-8445. I know these days are challenging and if through my experiences I can bring you a bit of comfort, help answer any questions about what next (especially when dealing with adult children), I&d be happy to walk alongside you. I am so sorry that you have been asked to walk the journey of grief. You will be ok, your joy will be returned, you do have hope! Many prayers go to you and your family. May the God of comfort bring you the comfort you need each day! Sandy Doyle

To the Bastian Family,
I was always honored to be a part of your family through Amy when we were at Purdue. I felt your love and joy whenever I was with you. As blessed and welcomed as I felt over those four years, I&m certain that Ryan knew how much he was loved. Your love as a family was continually evident, and God&s love was ever present in your home. Ryan was a lucky man to have such a caring family. I wish I could be there today with you. Dan and I are praying for you and will continue to do so. We love you.
