My dear sweet cousin, my heart grieves with yours because I know the love story that you shared with your beloved Tony. Although you learned the experiences of grief early in life, we also learned that neither is the same, but, our merciful God is. That same God that walked with you through those, is also walking with you now and will never leave you. I'm only a phone call away whenever you need me. Anytime! Chryel Lundy Macon, Ga.
