BYU Housing

Though I only knew your son through working in BYU housing, I from our first meeting that there was no shade of darkness in him. The radiance of his soul was and forever shall be immutable. Truly he is of the rarest gems. It was only recently that I discovered that he was and is the brother of one of my dearest friends- Emily.

I see in your family faith, hope, virtue, charity, and integrity. Though I have went through a similar experience, I offer no council because I know that in the darkest of moments there shall be a light that shall testify of all that is good and holy, for the soul lives on. Though the mortal moments for one is gone, the eternal soul of all can continue to commune in sacred spaces. I know Christ lives that he now embraces your boy- he has progressed in his eternal journey and smiles warmly, knowing that you shall also return someday. Live well my friends, I love you!
