It is with deep deep sadness I send my condolences to the family of Mr. Gregory Abney. I am so sorry for you loss. No doubt this is a very painful feeling of losing a young loved one. Mere words cannot heal the pain and emptiness you may be feeling. There is hope found in God's word that can be of great comfort in this distressing time. Isaiah 26:19 will provide comfort of a resurrection hope, and 1 Corithians 15:26 gives insight on how God feels about death and his plan for it.
