I am so sad to hear of Candy's death and the pain that her family is in. I pray for Alex, my niece, and all Candy's family. She went to heaven at such a young age, which makes it even harder. Our only hope is in Jesus Christ and the perfection that we finally reach in heaven. Life holds many hard things that we can only handle with God and love for one another through all of it! May God give you all comfort!
