Lance and Loren were my students at STEM. Lance took my computer classes in 5th, 6th and 7th grade. I have very fond memories of them both. I remember Lance competing in the Stock Market Game. He was reluctant at first but started to enjoy it especially the week his team was in first place. I saw Lance grow and become a young man in those three years. I met Scott while doing car rider duty. He would pick Lance and Loren up after school daily.
I am sorry for your loss. Please accept my family's sympathy and prayers. There is really nothing the Lord can't do.

Mrs Smith, I just want to say how sorry I am for your loss. I pray that you and Loren continue to seek comfort in God's love. Mr. Smith and I taught at West Elementary and he was always nice to me. As you know, I taught Lance and Loren at Carroll Smith and I enjoyed them both. Pamela, I will continue to pray for your family.

My prayers and thoughts are with the family in this time of grief. I am so sorry that distance and commitments here did not allow me to attend the funeral and physically be with you at this terrible time. Please know that I am with you in spirit today and for the coming weeks. Pam and Steve were precious to me and I remember their joy when Lance and Loren joined their family. Mr and Mrs Smith were not just colleagues but gracious friends who supported me as they did so many others in the Osceola School System. My prayers are with them as they deal with this tragedy.

Two years as your history teacher, getting to know you, watching you grow, experiencing your flaky sense of humor, being able to “dial it back” with you and the others while sitting in with the band at football games...I am truly blessed to have had these experiences with you, and my heart hurts beyond imagination right now. Requiescat in pace.....

I am so very sorry. Your father in law was my elementary school principal and I always thought he was so nice and kind when I was a kid.
I remember well when Steven was born and as he was growing up.
Even when we know our loved ones are in the arms of Jesus its still so incredibly hard. You have so many people praying for you and your daughter in the days and months to come and I pray you can find that peace that passes all understanding.
