"my son, you are loved your are missed may God keep you close"
"Rest in peace my young friend!"
"When I met Stephen he brought more joy and happiness to my life and was accepting of me as a person. Our camping trip was the best time of my life and I sorrowfully miss him! God Bless you Stephen."
"My heart goes out to all family and friends, sorry that I never got to meet you. Michael would have wanted that. You are gone physically, but your spirit lives on in your brothers heart and memories and through your many loved ones. My sincerest condolences to Margaret and Christian. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. "When you lose someone you love, you gain an angel." May you take comfort in knowing that you have an angel watching over you now. I know that you all loved him and wanted him here, but god needed him sooner and has biggger plans for him. May he rest in paradise."
"Grief is a process thats different for every individual. Its comforting to know that we have a Heavenly Father who knows our inner-most struggles to come to terms with our loss. I recently lost a brother, a sister-in-law and most recently a best friend so I can sympathize with your pain. I found a comforting scripture at 2 Corithians 1:3-4 which speaks of Jehovah as the God of all comfort who comforts us in all of our trials. I hope this brings you the same comfort as it has me.

""Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pour through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy." Stephen Keenan Lee, may you Rest In Peace. May God shine His magnificent light upon you. Love, from your Grandmother's, Nancy Keenan's, baby sister, Karen. "
"I miss you my son. Until we meet again."
