As I sit here and look at your son, I can only imagine a Smidgen of the pain you are feeling bc I almost lost my son 7 months ago. I know right now you are angry and hurt and can't stop asking "why"? But please try to find comfort in knowing that he is in heaven with sweet Jesus. Cherish the memories you have and always hold him close in your heart. You will see him again one day and hes gonna wrap his sweet little arms around you and you will never have to worry about saying "goodbye". So please don't you worry because Gods got your little boy and hes doing great. Heaven gained an angel, sweet Mason got his wings.

As one of Mason's teachers this year, I know God blessed me with the presence of a likable, lively and gregarious young man. While reading the cards that students wrote for Mason's family yesterday, I noticed almost all them mentioned how Mason made them laugh. He cracked me up a couple times, but I couldn't let him know it. I'll miss seeing him in the hall and in my class. I know the void I feel is only a fraction of what you as a family will feel. I pray that you will experience God's comfort and sustenance through this difficult time.

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I know it's hard to envision at this time that God had a better plan for Mason. I feel very blessed to have gotten to know Mason. He will forever be my little professor. My deepest sympathy to your family at this time. May God bless you and give you the strength necessary to make it through this time. I pray that Michael find comfort in knowing that his little brother will be well taking care of in Heaven. Love always Ms. C. Golden

I can't imagine the hurt you must be feeling at this difficult and shocking time. I hope that you can find comfort in knowing that dear Mason is now simply sleeping, as was Lazarus until Jesus came to "awaken" or resurrect him. (John 11:11, 43) Just like Lazarus, your Mason, as well as the rest now resting in the grave, will be brought back to the earth, but this time the earth will be peaceful, where death is no more. (John 5:28, 29; Psalm 37:29; Revelation 21:4) Until that time, our loving Creator, Jehovah God, knows that living without him will be hard. So as the "the God of all comfort," he invites you to "throw all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you." (2 Corinthians 1:3, 4; 1 Peter 5:7) Take care Carter and Pierson family.
