To Krystal's family: I would like to express my sorrow over your
tragic and senseless loss. I truly will never understand how anyone could
hurt a child in such a manner. She is now in Heaven with the other little
angels that have left this world too soon, and is smiling down upon you.
Please take comfort in the fact that others grieve over this with you.
God bless.

To the family and friends of Krystal, My heart and prayers go out
to each and everyone of you. I personaly know the pain that each and everyone
is suffering. I lost my son Robert to reyes syndrome (age 17) on March
12 1984. I truly wish I could put into words what I feel in my heart at
this time. I know that your tears that you are now shedding for Krystal
will soon dry up, but the pain that you now feel in your hearts will always
remain until we all are reunited with our loved ones. My thoughts and my
prayers will always be with you. Roger E. Porcella and family

I found this Native American Prayer on a card and I pray the words
will bring you comfort. The prayer goes like this: I give you this one
thought to keep -- I am with you still -- I do not sleep. I am a thousand
winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow, I am the sunlight on
ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's
hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not think of me as gone --
I am with you still -- in each new dawn. Your family is in our thoughts
and prayers. I have a nine year old daughter and can not even begin to
imagine your pain. There are no words to that could express our sympathy.....please
just know you are in our prayers.

To Krystal's family-My heart truly goes out to your family in your
time of deep grief and sorrow. My daughter was a friend of Krystal's, and
I couldn't help but think that if it weren't for the grace of God, it could
have been my tradgedy. You will remain in my prayers, and I pray that you
will let God take your grief and pain for you now. I also pray that you
will focus on this...that Krystal is now in heaven with the one who created
her (she has no memory of what happened) and there is no safer place to
be! God Bless you!

Our hopes and joys are in awaiting that day we go to be with the
Lord, serving Him in eternity. Only God knows when, where, and why until
we are with Him and as it says in the Bible "in the mind of God".. May
you find peace in time knowing that we are just waiting that we will join
her. God's peace and loving mercy be around you until that day we are all
together again.

To Betty,Sonya,Les,Irene,John,Karen and everyone else who knew and
loved Krystal, We can not begin to express our sorrow for your loss. It
is not words but time that will hopefully ease your pain. Maybe God took
"Uncle Peter" first to keep an eye on Krystal till the rest of us get up
there and can once again be with her.

I understand what your going through, because I've experienced the
loss of someone very dear in my life (my 2 year old grand daughter) - every
person has to get through a time like this in their own way. The pain will
always be there but the only thing I can give you hope is someday you will
be able to bring back the memories that will bring comfort to you just
as they do for me. When you are ready please visit my grand daughters www
site at http://members.tripod.com/alikatt1/jessicaindex.htm. Words can
not
express how terrible I feel for your entire family. God be with you.
