Hi Lawrence and Lori--I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. We have Jerad's graduation picture on our fridge from last year and when I heard the news I just couldn't believe that such a handsome young man had such a tragic ending. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family during this difficult time--feel free to email or call if you need anything. I have the same email as before--Mom is back in MN this week so that's how I heard the news. She's at Mark's house, I think she's going to try and get ahold of you or your dad while she's there. Again, I'm sorry for your loss--I can't imagine losing a child, Your Cousin, Debbie Brosius-Carvalho

Hi Lori, Sorry to hear of your loss. It has been along time since seeing you. Michelle told me about your loss at work and Becky (sister) told me also. I was touched when I read how your son was so into music and many other things. I do remember how your whole family was always into music. The guitar stuck out in my mind. I can still see your mom washing clothes in the backyard with her cigarette hanging out of her mouth. Susan always getting mad, Linda working so hard and so quiet. Doug also was the quite one. Alvin was a little more into mischief. Then there was Maxine (Oh boy) the one who always was laughing and loud. David was also the quite one. Then there was your and Chris. I just remember your long blonde hair and you were pretty inseperable from Chris. You always had the dirty face and liked to play in the mud. Your son is beautiful. He looks alot like the "Nord" side of the family. Michelle said he also looks alot like his dad. Lori, my heart and prayers go out to you and your family at this time. You know I am only a little ways from you, Hallock,MN. yea, not that far huh? I also work with Jean Helm and she was saying how your son really takes to Okie in church. You have alot of friends and family to hold on to. Don't be afraid to lean on them. Call me if there is any thing I can do. 218-843-3543 (Anytime) Love always Your Cousin, Vicky Wilson (Eide)
