  3. Dear Nebraska Friends,
    I am writing to you from Missouri. I am one of the friends here. I think of you and how you must feel but also knowing that God has our "special little angels" in His care. I lost a daughter two years ago here in Missouri. She had cerebral palsy. It is hard losing a child before you feel that it is their time, but we know that God knows and sees the way, His way is perfect and He puts special little ones here in this world to teach us so much. I am sure you appreciated all that your little girl taught you and I just want to send my hugs and thoughts as you journey on to be with her someday.

      We too are so very sorry to learn of your dear little Rebecca. The few times we have seen your family and been around Rebecca, she truly captured our hearts. We will always remember her as being a very special person. Words fail to express our concern and care for you all in these days of your great loss. But we don't ever want to forget that God has a purpose in every experience He has planned for His own. It helps bring comfort in suffering your great loss. Our thoughts and prayers are surely with you these days.

  8. I have always remembered little Rebecca after seeing her at Antioc convention going up the hill with her walker. She left a special message in my heart: When you fall, don't lay and cry. Just smile and get up and go on.
