So sorry to hear about your son, didn't know til tonight
Thinking of you always.
So sorry to hear about your son.(My cousin I never met)my thoughts are with you.
This is so sad 😞
I'm so very sorry. Leeann and Monty. I pray. That your hearts heal. It will always hurt. But he is with our lord. And will live in heaven forever. I pray for your heart. And pain. Ask our lord to watch over you both. And give you strength. You will join him some day. God bless.
I'm so very sorry for the loss to your family, Monte, Cody, Shelly & Jessica. I know the four of you more than I do the others, and if that is any indication, I have no doubt that Kaleb was a wonderful person! Take comfort in the memories that you all shared as you face the difficult days ahead. Thinking of you all!
I still can't get my head wrapped around by this. This is too unreal. I'm so sorry for the family to lose Kaleb like that. It is a total Tragedy. Kaleb was a good friend even though we weren't close, I still remember when Teen Reach was at the Health Department and I would see him there hanging out with some of our mutual friends and often I would join in and just have a blast with the group of friends we had going around that time. He was a nice kid growing up and seeing this has to be an illusion. Even though I'm across the country, I still cherish the memories that I had with Kaleb. I send my greatest condolences to his family and we'll keep you in our thoughts and prayers. He will be dearly missed.
So sorry for your loss.
