My heartfelt sympathy to Dakota's family and friends. To lose someone with so much left to share with the world is terribly difficult. May all of you find comfort in your wonderful memories, as well as God's promise of a resurrection. (Acts 24:15) Jesus said: “I am the resurrection and the life.” (John 11:25,26) These words give us hope for the future, knowing that through Jesus Christ we have the sure hope of being reunited with our loved ones again, happy and healthy. (John 5:21,28,29)
