Paul, I cannot imagine what you and Kimmy must be going through. I know there are no words that can console or ease the pain, but rest in knowing that your baby boy's memory will live on through all the people who's lives he has touched. We are praying for you and your family to find strength during this difficult time. May the Lord bless and keep you through the days ahead.

Paul & Kimmy, Their has been a selective few times in my life that I've become & found myself speechless & this is one of these times. I could never say I understand, because I do not. All I do know is that you guys need to hold & treasure each other, family & friends with every breath & strength that you have in each other. I had a very selective time with AJ as an individual, but I do know that I had a loving and great kid in my lap during the times that I did have with him. Always remember that he is a product of you guys & you guys alone. (You molded him to what he was, (And AJ was a loving great kid) What I felt when I was with Aj is obviouly what your friends & family feel when with you guys. Take for example the last 5 days. I enjoy each & every time that I've spent around you guys. Stay Strong During The Tough Times... Ryan Bartley... Truly Sorry For Your Loss...
