I read the story of Eric Ward and immediately wanted to paint a rock in his memory and continue to spread the word about him.
I am so sorry for your loss and I pray for you and your family. I’m sure he was a wonderful son and I know you miss him dearly.

I am very sorry for your loss . Losing a loved one in death is such a difficult thing to experience . Please be comforted by the promises in the Bible . Jesus tells us at John 5 : 28 , 29 that all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out . What a loving provision put in place by the God of all comfort so we can have the assured hope of seeing our dead loved ones live again one day . Meanwhile as I pray for that day to come I ask Jehovah God to bless your family and give each of you the strength to endure this most trying time .

Brian, Kendra, and Baylee, I very sorry to learn of your loss and I am deeply saddened. I met Eric when he was a little boy when Brian and I attended the police academy together. It was easy to see he was Brian's pride and joy. I will continue to pray for your family daily that you may find peace in your hearts in this difficult.

Words cannot even begin to comfort your loss. It was our honor and privilege to have Eric in the flight training program at BGSU and in our aviation family. We are deeply saddened by his passing and can only hope he is flying through blue skies now. You are in our thoughts.

To the parents, grandparents, family and friends:
I am brokenhearted at the news of Eric's death. He was a student of mine last semester and i found him a smart, gentlemanly, fair and honest young man, who was respected by his peers. He went out of his way to help others in the class and worked very hard. I honor him as a soldier and a man.
Respectfully,

Dear Brian & Kendra,
There are no words to speak to what you & your family are going through. Life can present so many different hurdles. I cannot begin to offer the condolences needed at this troubling time. In fact there are none. You and Kendra will need to find your own special ways to remember Eric . I deeply apologize for not being able to attend Eric's celebration of life this Saturday. I will be out of town on business that cannot be rescheduled. But please know that my prayers for Eric and you all are heartfelt. I can only hope that you will find peace as time goes on.
Jeff
