Much has taken place this past year, the newly elected State Attorney has arrested and charged the young man responsible for your deaths. Josh, our oldest son, has got married three months ago, Brody is planning to attend trade school early next year and our country suffered one of it's most devastating tragedies, but through it all you two are still the main focus of my life, yes you are no longer here in the flesh, but you two are always in my heart and thoughts, not a day, an hour or a moment goes by without some wonderful memory I have about our life together. I will press forward with diligence for justice in your deaths, I will watch over our son's with love and nurturing, and I do pray for our country and it's leaders, but most of all I look forward to joining you two in Heaven someday. We all my love, Grief
