Awhile back, we came to our wonderful FR family and asked for prayer for little 2 year old Garrett. He had suffered a seizure and convulsions, and the doctors put him in a coma to let the seizures run their course. He came out of it after a couple of weeks, and has been in physical therapy ever since.
His daddy is in the Navy, and they bent over backwards to help this family with their needs.
Garrett and his mommy were flying from Phoenix back home to San Diego today when Garrett stopped breathing. They made an emergency landing in Yuma, but it was too late. Garrett just didn't make it.
The family is converging on Yuma now, and will be making arrangements in the next few days. I'd ask that those of you so inclined pray for Garrett's family, and mine. Many of you know my granddaughter; her mom and Garrett's mom are like sisters, and this has hit her hard.
That...is just AWFUL!!!
In my prayers for sure...
I am so sorry..
Prayers for all tonight.
My thoughts & prayers are with you, Piper and your families during this very hard time.
Prayers for a tiny angel and his family.
May the Goodness of God heal you.
You were trusted with an angel.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Prayers up for the family and friends of precious little Garrett.
I'm so sorry. May our Heavenly Father send peace, comfort and strength to all who love Garrett.
I join in urgent prayer for Garrett's family and for yours as everyone deals with his homegoing.
Tears and (((HUGS))) to you.
My deepest sympathies at the loss of your precious son.
I know that one day...I will understand...but right now..I surely don't.
Please pass on my sympathies to your family.
It must have been hard for you to read this story.
You will be in my thoughts and prayers as well.
AMEN.
I'm crying, Joe. If Garrett and his family and Piper and your family ever needed Jesus, it's now. May he hold on to the sweet boy's parents and not let go...

I'm so very sorry, HiJinx. The family will be in my prayers.
I'll be praying for Garrett's family.
Psalm 34:18
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
Matthew 5:4
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
John 14:27
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you asthe world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
Sad prayers for all involved, HiJinx. What a heartbreaker...
Prayers for Garrett's family and yours. May you all find peace at this difficult time.
BTTT
Poor little boy. May he rest in peace. Prayers for the family.

Prayers for all of you.
