    So very sorry for the tragic death of your loved one. Losing someone so young is heartbreaking, and there are few words of comfort. When my oldest son, Sonny Jack, passed away suddendly with an epileptic seizure in his sleep eight years ago, it broke my heart. Even though. we are promised a resurrection hope of our loved ones at John 5:28, 29 and Acts 24:15, it did not bring comfort at the time because I wanted him back now. I didn’t want to wait. Each day I begged God to help me cope. Then someone told me to look up Isaiah 41:10, 13. The scripture became a lifeline for me during this difficult time. It says in verse 10, “Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be anxious, for I am your God. I will fortify you, yes, I will help you, I will really hold on to you with my right hand of righteousness .” Verse 13 continues - “For I, Jehovah your God, am grasping your right hand, The One saying to you, ‘Do not be afraid. I will help you.” What a beautiful scripture of comfort from our heavenly Father, Jehovah God. Hopefully this beautiful scripture brings you a measure of comfort during the hard days ahead.

    Dear family, I'm so sorry for the loss of your beloved Lakin. May the God of all comfort give you peace at this difficult time. We look forward to seeing our dead loved ones again in the righteous paradise here on earth very soon. Acts 24:15; Psalm 37:29

    So sad it is, your wings did fly.. Why oh why did you go so high? Left us behind with out a hint We always knew you were Heaven sent. Your spirit lives on in your son's heart. He will always know his Mama from the start. He will think of you and know that he's loved..by an Angel of Maternity from Heaven above. May God bless the Gabels. Comfort them. Guide them. Lift them.

    Dear Family, I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your loved one. My sincere condolences to you. May you think of the many beautiful memories that you shared with Lakin(Ashlyn), and cherish those precious moments. May the God of all comfort caress your heart with his living promise to one day reunite you together again in the future paradise mentioned at Revelation 21: 4,5. Our Dear Heavenly Father Jehovah (Psalms 83:18 )knows the many tears you cry and he will sustain you if you let him. I was thinking of you and hoping that you can find comfort during this difficult time.

    Lakin was in my 2nd grade classroom years ago at Stonehouse Elementary. She was a sweet, smart, caring little girl. From her picture in the paper, I know she became a beautiful young woman. I'm so sad about this tragedy.

    I didn't know Lakin (Ashlyn), but I certainly wish we had met. If she has gone on to another place, I hope the bass are biting, hunting season lasts all year and the beer supply is endless! I'm sorry for the family's loss.

    Lakin, it has been awhile since we have seen each other, and I still cannot believe that you are gone. You will be missed. I will miss that smile and that larger than life personality. At this very moment you are turning heaven on its head. Creating some kind of fun, just as you did on this earth. My heart goes out to your family and my prayers are with each of them, inparticular your Mom and Dad.

    Lakin was a beautiful person inside and out. I've watched her mature from a gorgeous little girl to an amazing young women and mother. I am heart broken that we will not get to watch our little boys grow up and play together. They say the good go young and this is completely accurate for she will be in heaven watching down over everyone.

    Lakin you have always been a beautiful person inside and out. I got to see you grow up in and out from running around to me and saying manda to the coming best friends with my little sister to become and family when I'm married your uncle that I think the best part of seeing you row up through the years as when you had Harrison you became a real woman who absolutely adore that little boy and he will never ever not know that because everybody will make sure that he does. You are so LOVED and MISSED!!! Roxy, Tim, Tag and Harrison words can not express just how sorry we are. Love you all

    I have known Lakin/Ashlyn since she was born. Didn't see her often but when I did she always had the most welcoming smile, as all of the family has always done with me. Roxy, Tim, Tag, Tricia, Bonnie, Weslie and Bj have always loved me like family. You are all in my thoughts and I love you all.

    Sweet Larkin I enjoyed talking to you just a few weeks ago as we both made over your handsome little guy. He may not grow up with you but I believe you will be his "guarding angel". I know there was a great celebration when Grammy met you at the gates! May our Lord give comfort to all that loved you!
