It is believed that severe weather and rain-slicked roads, the result of Hurricane Ivan, contributed to the accident.

Happy Birthday Precious Son. Oh my gosh I miss you so much. I've been looking through pictures so this is probably not the best time to be talking to you because I'm so weepy, actually it probably is, because now I feel you hugging me, kissing the top of my head, and reassuring me it will be ok. I know you see all the wonderful things going on in the family and you are always a part of everything we do. Stronger together, that's us, in Heaven and on Earth.

I love you My Beautiful Smiling Eyes. Son of My Life forever and always.
Have a wonderful Birthday in Heaven.

To eternity and Beyond.

Momma
