I am Abbey’s Great Aunt Becky. I was so saddened to learn the sudden news of Dustin’s death. I was looking forward to meeting another nephew that I was going to be adding in the future. Please know that your family will continue to be held close to heart and that many prayers are going up for all of you. May you find much needed strength and peace in the weeks and months ahead. It’s so hard to lose the people we love, but especially at such a young age.
