I am really sorry for your loss! I, too am a father of a St. Jude son that passed away 19 years ago. I also have a daughter that is a St. Jude survivor. So, I have a pretty good ideal of what you have been through and what you are going through now. Please never quit talking about your son! You will never forget the pain, but you will learn to deal with it! God Bless and #rylanstrongnetwork
I have followed his story on Facebook. I am so very sorry for your loss. He seemed like such a wonderful child. Sending love and prayers for all of you!!! Praying God will wrap his arms around each of you during this difficult time. RIP sweet Angel!!!
I'm so sorry for your loss. I pray that God will wrap his arms around you all and give you piece and comfort that only our Lord Jesus can provide. God is closest to the broken hearted. I pray that God will use this little boys life and death to honor and praise Christ Jesus and bring those that might hear Cash's story to salvation in Jesus.
The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.

I know that you don’t know me but I am so sorry for the loss of your handsome son. I lost my son 2 years ago so I understand the pain and the heart break you are feeling. It is not a pain and hurt anyone should have to carry. If you ever need someone to listen or someone to talk to. You can send me a friend request on Facebook. Again I am so sorry there are no words I can say to ease your pain but I will pray for you
