OT - Missing cousin found

I want to take a minute to say thank you to everyone for their kind words of support and prayers.

Unfortunately, I found out today that my cousin's body was found at the bottom of the lake in the park where he was last seen. This is just horrifying!!! I am in tears as I type this. No parent should ever have to bury their child.

Please continue to keep my family in your prayers as we all begin the grieving process.

I am so sorry. That is devastating. I wish I knew the right words but I don't know if they exist. From what you wrote earlier it sounds like he was well loved, that came thru in your post. If it is any comfort, that is the best way to have lived because even in death, his spirit lives on in your families hearts and anyone who was blessed enough to know him. Again, I am so sorry. You, your cousin, and your family will remain in my prayers.
