Sohndra and Raymond -- I read somewhere that "sometimes the strongest are the ones who love beyond all faults, cry behind closed doors, and fight battles that no one knows about." I watched you pour your love, heart, and soul into Shamiya. You loved her proudly and fiercely. You are not alone even when you feel lonely. I lift you up, lift you up. My dear Shamiya -- You will be with us forever like a hand print on our hearts. Randy and I learned from you that strength is something you choose, and how not to crumble. We learned the power of stillness, the power of survival, the power of perseverance, the power of laughter, and the power of forgiveness. You taught us how to laugh from the eyes. Rest gently. Heaven is a beautiful place because it has you. - Catrena & Randall
