Supporting the Gonzalez Family

   Agenda | Posted on October 21, 2014

We are sorry to let you know that earlier today, Emma Gonzalez, the younger daughter of Daniel and Wendy Gonzalez, passed away in an accident. Daniel is an assistant professor of biology here at Andrews University.

Emma’s grandmother, Sylvia Gonzalez, is also part of our Andrews faculty and community as a professor of leadership and educational leadership.

Campus Ministries is collecting non-perishable items all of this week (through Friday, Oct. 24) for the Gonzalez family, to relieve them of thinking about necessities such as laundry detergent, toilet paper, toothpaste, canned food, beans, rice, etc. If you would like to contribute to this collection, please drop your items off at the Campus Ministries office in the Campus Center during regular business hours. 

A memorial service for Emma was held Tuesday morning at the Spanish Seventh-day Advetist Church in Berrien Springs. The Andrews University family can share messages and condolences for Emma’s family and friends below (click "Leave a Comment"), and we invite you to remember and surround Emma's family and her friends with your prayers at this time of loss.

Jesus wept, so have I. But the promise is sure, He will return. We will see Emma again. Hold fast the faith. Do not allow the enemy to win. He has already lost. God bless you all. Veronica Johnsen

Wendy and Dan, Cora, Sylvia and Eduardo, Cherie and Louis, words simply can't convey our heartache and sorrow that we share with you. We hold you close in prayer every day as you travel this dark and painful journey through the valley of death. But with you we look forward to that day of unspeakable joy when Emma will be placed back in your arms while all around, joyful reunions take place. From that day onward there will be no more pain, darkness, or suffering. Even so come Lord Jesus. May God grant you peace as we wait. David & Lynn

Daniel, Wendy, Sylvia, and Eduardo, My heart broke when I heard the news while in the Philippines. I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you. Ronald Steger and family

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

Estamos pidiendo a Dios que les de fuerza y paz en estos momentos sobre todos para que Cora este bien y pasen este traga amargo de la mejor manera. Muchas veces cuando trabajo en la computadora y me equivoco, simplemente presiono la tecla "Comando" + "Z" la computadora regresa y tengo la oportunidad de hacerlo de nuevo, muchas veces en la vida quisiera hacer eso y no puedo, solo se que Dios tiene otro metodo, Dios presiona "Comando" + "S" para salvarme eternamente. No sabemos por que Dios permite cosas pero sabemos que Dios tiene el poder se SALVAR. Un abrazo fuerte para ti y tu esposa. Los queremos mucho. Cesar Covarrubias

To the affected family, I personally do not know you but when death comes to any of us, we all need to be a family and be there for each other. I am indeed very sorry for this great loss. May God be your greatest comforter at this time of grieve. May you be comforted to know that pretty soon, you will meet your loved one on that glorious morning when the dead will hear His voice and with triumph over death, we will all be united with them again. Yes, our God will wipe away all our tears. I pray that we meet her and others who have gone before us on that great morning.

Wendy, Daniel, Sylvia and Eduardo. The world is sadden with your loss. The Heavens weep. The Universe is at awe, and can't understand. The heart of those who knew little Emma is broken, and her image will be engraved in their minds forever. This is a moment and time of great and profound consternation and sorrow. You are constantly in our prayers. Please accept our sincere condolences. Be assured that Emma will rise one day, because our greatest enemy was already defeated at the Cross.

Robb and Kristina were so very shocked and saddened to learn about Emma today. Know that all of us are praying for you and sending our deepest condolences and prayers. Like you, they look forward to meeting one of their little ones when Jesus comes again. And dear grandparents, Eduardo and Silvia, as grandparents who also grieved the loss of a grandchild, we feel your pain and long for the day when these precious little ones will be returned to their parents (and grandparents) arms! Until then, their souls are safe in Gods keeping and He promises to uphold, comfort and give us peace and hope until Jesus returns. Again, we're so very, very sorry. Beyond words.... LuAnn Bermeo

My heart has been so heavy ever since hearing the tragic news this morning and my prayers are ongoing that you will be wrapped in the loving arms of God who is definitely weeping with you. I hope one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, will bring some comfort: "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.

Wendy and Dan, Cora, Sylvia and Eduardo, Cherie and Louis, words simply can't convey our heartache and sorrow that we share with you. We hold you close in prayer every day as you travel this dark and painful journey through the valley of death. But with you we look forward to that day of unspeakable joy when Emma will be placed back in your arms while all around, joyful reunions take place. From that day onward there will be no more pain, darkness, or suffering. Even so come Lord Jesus. May God grant you peace as we wait. David & Lynn

Daniel, Wendy, Sylvia, and Eduardo, My heart broke when I heard the news while in the Philippines. I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you. Ronald Steger and family

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

May God be your greatest comforter at this time of grieve. May you be comforted to know that pretty soon, you will meet your loved one on that glorious morning when the dead will hear His voice and with triumph over death, we will all be united with them again. Yes, our God will wipe away all our tears. I pray that we meet her and others who have gone before us on that great morning.

Robb and Kristina were so very shocked and saddened to learn about Emma today. Know that all of us are praying for you and sending our deepest condolences and prayers. Like you, they look forward to meeting one of their little ones when Jesus comes again. And dear grandparents, Eduardo and Silvia, as grandparents who also grieved the loss of a grandchild, we feel your pain and long for the day when these precious little ones will be returned to their parents (and grandparents) arms! Until then, their souls are safe in Gods keeping and He promises to uphold, comfort and give us peace and hope until Jesus returns. Again, we're so very, very sorry. Beyond words.... LuAnn Bermeo

My heart has been so heavy ever since hearing the tragic news this morning and my prayers are ongoing that you will be wrapped in the loving arms of God who is definitely weeping with you. I hope one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, will bring some comfort: "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.

Wendy and Dan, Cora, Sylvia and Eduardo, Cherie and Louis, words simply can't convey our heartache and sorrow that we share with you. We hold you close in prayer every day as you travel this dark and painful journey through the valley of death. But with you we look forward to that day of unspeakable joy when Emma will be placed back in your arms while all around, joyful reunions take place. From that day onward there will be no more pain, darkness, or suffering. Even so come Lord Jesus. May God grant you peace as we wait. David & Lynn

Daniel, Wendy, Sylvia, and Eduardo, My heart broke when I heard the news while in the Philippines. I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you. Ronald Steger and family

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

May God be your greatest comforter at this time of grieve. May you be comforted to know that pretty soon, you will meet your loved one on that glorious morning when the dead will hear His voice and with triumph over death, we will all be united with them again. Yes, our God will wipe away all our tears. I pray that we meet her and others who have gone before us on that great morning.

Dear Neighbors, Daniel, Wendy and Cora...I am Vincent and Cedric's Grandma. Cora used to like to swing with my grandsons in our front yard. Robb and Kristina were so very shocked and saddened to learn about Emma today. Know that all of us are praying for you and sending our deepest condolences and prayers. Like you, they look forward to meeting one of their little ones when Jesus comes again. And dear grandparents, Eduardo and Silvia, as grandparents who also grieved the loss of a grandchild, we feel your pain and long for the day when these precious little ones will be returned to their parents (and grandparents) arms! Until then, their souls are safe in Gods keeping and He promises to uphold, comfort and give us peace and hope until Jesus returns. Again, we're so very, very sorry. Beyond words.... LuAnn Bermeo

My heart has been so heavy ever since hearing the tragic news this morning and my prayers are ongoing that you will be wrapped in the loving arms of God who is definitely weeping with you. I hope one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, will bring some comfort: "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.

Jesus wept, so have I. But the promise is sure, He will return. We will see Emma again. Hold fast the faith. Do not allow the enemy to win. He has already lost. God bless you all. Veronica Johnsen

Wendy and Dan, Cora, Sylvia and Eduardo, Cherie and Louis, words simply can't convey our heartache and sorrow that we share with you. We hold you close in prayer every day as you travel this dark and painful journey through the valley of death. But with you we look forward to that day of unspeakable joy when Emma will be placed back in your arms while all around, joyful reunions take place. From that day onward there will be no more pain, darkness, or suffering. Even so come Lord Jesus. May God grant you peace as we wait. David & Lynn

Daniel, Wendy, Sylvia, and Eduardo, My heart broke when I heard the news while in the Philippines. I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you. Ronald Steger and family

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

May God be your greatest comforter at this time of grieve. May you be comforted to know that pretty soon, you will meet your loved one on that glorious morning when the dead will hear His voice and with triumph over death, we will all be united with them again. Yes, our God will wipe away all our tears. I pray that we meet her and others who have gone before us on that great morning.

Dear Neighbors, Daniel, Wendy and Cora...I am Vincent and Cedric's Grandma. Cora used to like to swing with my grandsons in our front yard. Robb and Kristina were so very shocked and saddened to learn about Emma today. Know that all of us are praying for you and sending our deepest condolences and prayers. Like you, they look forward to meeting one of their little ones when Jesus comes again. And dear grandparents, Eduardo and Silvia, as grandparents who also grieved the loss of a grandchild, we feel your pain and long for the day when these precious little ones will be returned to their parents (and grandparents) arms! Until then, their souls are safe in Gods keeping and He promises to uphold, comfort and give us peace and hope until Jesus returns. Again, we're so very, very sorry. Beyond words.... LuAnn Bermeo

My heart has been so heavy ever since hearing the tragic news this morning and my prayers are ongoing that you will be wrapped in the loving arms of God who is definitely weeping with you. I hope one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, will bring some comfort: "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.

Wendy and Dan, Cora, Sylvia and Eduardo, Cherie and Louis, words simply can't convey our heartache and sorrow that we share with you. We hold you close in prayer every day as you travel this dark and painful journey through the valley of death. But with you we look forward to that day of unspeakable joy when Emma will be placed back in your arms while all around, joyful reunions take place. From that day onward there will be no more pain, darkness, or suffering. Even so come Lord Jesus. May God grant you peace as we wait. David & Lynn

Daniel, Wendy, Sylvia, and Eduardo, My heart broke when I heard the news while in the Philippines. I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you. Ronald Steger and family

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

May God be your greatest comforter at this time of grieve. May you be comforted to know that pretty soon, you will meet your loved one on that glorious morning when the dead will hear His voice and with triumph over death, we will all be united with them again. Yes, our God will wipe away all our tears. I pray that we meet her and others who have gone before us on that great morning.

Though we cannot feel the depths of your pain, those of us who are parents can, to some small degree, imagine the horror of your loss.

Dear Neighbors, Daniel, Wendy and Cora...I am Vincent and Cedric's Grandma. Cora used to like to swing with my grandsons in our front yard. Robb and Kristina were so very shocked and saddened to learn about Emma today. Know that all of us are praying for you and sending our deepest condolences and prayers. Like you, they look forward to meeting one of their little ones when Jesus comes again. And dear grandparents, Eduardo and Silvia, as grandparents who also grieved the loss of a grandchild, we feel your pain and long for the day when these precious little ones will be returned to their parents (and grandparents) arms! Until then, their souls are safe in Gods keeping and He promises to uphold, comfort and give us peace and hope until Jesus returns. Again, we're so very, very sorry. Beyond words.... LuAnn Bermeo

My heart has been so heavy ever since hearing the tragic news this morning and my prayers are ongoing that you will be wrapped in the loving arms of God who is definitely weeping with you. I hope one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, will bring some comfort: "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.

From that day onward there will be no more pain, darkness, or suffering. Even so come Lord Jesus. May God grant you peace as we wait. David & Lynn

Daniel, Wendy, Sylvia, and Eduardo, My heart broke when I heard the news while in the Philippines. I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you. Ronald Steger and family

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

May God be your greatest comforter at this time of grieve. May you be comforted to know that pretty soon, you will meet your loved one on that glorious morning when the dead will hear His voice and with triumph over death, we will all be united with them again.

Though we cannot feel the depths of your pain, those of us who are parents can, to some small degree, imagine the horror of your loss.

Dear Neighbors, Daniel, Wendy and Cora...I am Vincent and Cedric's Grandma. Cora used to like to swing with my grandsons in our front yard. Robb and Kristina were so very shocked and saddened to learn about Emma today. Know that all of us are praying for you and sending our deepest condolences and prayers. Like you, they look forward to meeting one of their little ones when Jesus comes again. And dear grandparents, Eduardo and Silvia, as grandparents who also grieved the loss of a grandchild, we feel your pain and long for the day when these precious little ones will be returned to their parents (and grandparents) arms! Until then, their souls are safe in Gods keeping and He promises to uphold, comfort and give us peace and hope until Jesus returns. Again, we're so very, very sorry. Beyond words.... LuAnn Bermeo

My heart has been so heavy ever since hearing the tragic news this morning and my prayers are ongoing that you will be wrapped in the loving arms of God who is definitely weeping with you. I hope one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, will bring some comfort: "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.

Daniel, Wendy, Sylvia, and Eduardo, My heart broke when I heard the news while in the Philippines. I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you. Ronald Steger and family

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

May God be your greatest comforter at this time of grieve. May you be comforted to know that pretty soon, you will meet your loved one on that glorious morning when the dead will hear His voice and with triumph over death, we will all be united with them again. Yes, our God will wipe away all our tears. I pray that we meet her and others who have gone before us on that great morning.

Dear Wendy and Daniel, As you are engulfed in a storm that no human being should ever have to face, know that we are lifting you up in deep love and fervent prayers. Though we cannot feel the depths of your pain, those of us who are parents can, to some small degree, imagine the horror of your loss. May our tender Heavenly Father carry you close to His heart as you face the days and weeks ahead. With much love and deepest sympathy, Silvia and Gianluca Bacchiocchi

Dear Neighbors, Daniel, Wendy and Cora...I am Vincent and Cedric's Grandma. Cora used to like to swing with my grandsons in our front yard. Robb and Kristina were so very shocked and saddened to learn about Emma today. Know that all of us are praying for you and sending our deepest condolences and prayers. Like you, they look forward to meeting one of their little ones when Jesus comes again. And dear grandparents, Eduardo and Silvia, as grandparents who also grieved the loss of a grandchild, we feel your pain and long for the day when these precious little ones will be returned to their parents (and grandparents) arms! Until then, their souls are safe in Gods keeping and He promises to uphold, comfort and give us peace and hope until Jesus returns. Again, we're so very, very sorry. Beyond words.... LuAnn Bermeo

My heart has been so heavy ever since hearing the tragic news this morning and my prayers are ongoing that you will be wrapped in the loving arms of God who is definitely weeping with you. I hope one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, will bring some comfort: "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.

I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you. Ronald Steger and family

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

Muchas veces cuando trabajo en la computadora y me equivoco, simplemente presiono la tecla "Comando" + "Z" la computadora regresa y tengo la oportunidad de hacerlo de nuevo, muchas veces en la vida quisiera hacer eso y no puedo, solo se que Dios tiene otro metodo, Dios presiona "Comando" + "S" para salvarme eternamente.

May God be your greatest comforter at this time of grieve. May you be comforted to know that pretty soon, you will meet your loved one on that glorious morning when the dead will hear His voice and with triumph over death, we will all be united with them again. Yes, our God will wipe away all our tears. I pray that we meet her and others who have gone before us on that great morning.

Dear Wendy and Daniel, As you are engulfed in a storm that no human being should ever have to face, know that we are lifting you up in deep love and fervent prayers. Though we cannot feel the depths of your pain, those of us who are parents can, to some small degree, imagine the horror of your loss. May our tender Heavenly Father carry you close to His heart as you face the days and weeks ahead. With much love and deepest sympathy, Silvia and Gianluca Bacchiocchi

Dear Neighbors, Daniel, Wendy and Cora...I am Vincent and Cedric's Grandma. Cora used to like to swing with my grandsons in our front yard. Robb and Kristina were so very shocked and saddened to learn about Emma today. Know that all of us are praying for you and sending our deepest condolences and prayers. Like you, they look forward to meeting one of their little ones when Jesus comes again. And dear grandparents, Eduardo and Silvia, as grandparents who also grieved the loss of a grandchild, we feel your pain and long for the day when these precious little ones will be returned to their parents (and grandparents) arms! Until then, their souls are safe in Gods keeping and He promises to uphold, comfort and give us peace and hope until Jesus returns. Again, we're so very, very sorry. Beyond words.... LuAnn Bermeo

My heart has been so heavy ever since hearing the tragic news this morning and my prayers are ongoing that you will be wrapped in the loving arms of God who is definitely weeping with you. I hope one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, will bring some comfort: "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.

I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you. Ronald Steger and family

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

Muchas veces cuando trabajo en la computadora y me equivoco, simplemente presiono la tecla "Comando" + "Z" la computadora regresa y tengo la oportunidad de hacerlo de nuevo, muchas veces en la vida quisiera hacer eso y no puedo, solo se que Dios tiene otro metodo, Dios presiona "Comando" + "S" para salvarme eternamente.

May God be your greatest comforter at this time of grieve. May you be comforted to know that pretty soon, you will meet your loved one on that glorious morning when the dead will hear His voice and with triumph over death, we will all be united with them again. Yes, our God will wipe away all our tears. I pray that we meet her and others who have gone before us on that great morning.

Dear Wendy and Daniel, As you are engulfed in a storm that no human being should ever have to face, know that we are lifting you up in deep love and fervent prayers. Though we cannot feel the depths of your pain, those of us who are parents can, to some small degree, imagine the horror of your loss. May our tender Heavenly Father carry you close to His heart as you face the days and weeks ahead. With much love and deepest sympathy, Silvia and Gianluca Bacchiocchi

Dear Neighbors, Daniel, Wendy and Cora...I am Vincent and Cedric's Grandma. Cora used to like to swing with my grandsons in our front yard. Robb and Kristina were so very shocked and saddened to learn about Emma today. Know that all of us are praying for you and sending our deepest condolences and prayers. Like you, they look forward to meeting one of their little ones when Jesus comes again. And dear grandparents, Eduardo and Silvia, as grandparents who also grieved the loss of a grandchild, we feel your pain and long for the day when these precious little ones will be returned to their parents (and grandparents) arms! Until then, their souls are safe in Gods keeping and He promises to uphold, comfort and give us peace and hope until Jesus returns. Again, we're so very, very sorry. Beyond words.... LuAnn Bermeo

My heart has been so heavy ever since hearing the tragic news this morning and my prayers are ongoing that you will be wrapped in the loving arms of God who is definitely weeping with you. I hope one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, will bring some comfort: "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.

I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you. Ronald Steger and family

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

Estamos pidiendo a Dios que les de fuerza y paz en estos momentos sobre todos para que Cora este bien y pasen este traga amargo de la mejor manera. Muchas veces cuando trabajo en la computadora y me equivoco, simplemente presiono la tecla "Comando" + "Z" la computadora regresa y tengo la oportunidad de hacerlo de nuevo, muchas veces en la vida quisiera hacer eso y no puedo, solo se que Dios tiene otro metodo, Dios presiona "Comando" + "S" para salvarme eternamente. No sabemos por que Dios permite cosas pero sabemos que Dios tiene el poder se SALVAR. Un abrazo fuerte para ti y tu esposa. Los queremos mucho. Cesar Covarrubias

May God be your greatest comforter at this time of grieve. May you be comforted to know that pretty soon, you will meet your loved one on that glorious morning when the dead will hear His voice and with triumph over death, we will all be united with them again. Yes, our God will wipe away all our tears. I pray that we meet her and others who have gone before us on that great morning.

Dear Wendy and Daniel, As you are engulfed in a storm that no human being should ever have to face, know that we are lifting you up in deep love and fervent prayers. Though we cannot feel the depths of your pain, those of us who are parents can, to some small degree, imagine the horror of your loss. May our tender Heavenly Father carry you close to His heart as you face the days and weeks ahead. With much love and deepest sympathy, Silvia and Gianluca Bacchiocchi

Dear Neighbors, Daniel, Wendy and Cora...I am Vincent and Cedric's Grandma. Cora used to like to swing with my grandsons in our front yard. Robb and Kristina were so very shocked and saddened to learn about Emma today. Know that all of us are praying for you and sending our deepest condolences and prayers. Like you, they look forward to meeting one of their little ones when Jesus comes again. And dear grandparents, Eduardo and Silvia, as grandparents who also grieved the loss of a grandchild, we feel your pain and long for the day when these precious little ones will be returned to their parents (and grandparents) arms! Until then, their souls are safe in Gods keeping and He promises to uphold, comfort and give us peace and hope until Jesus returns. Again, we're so very, very sorry. Beyond words.... LuAnn Bermeo

My heart has been so heavy ever since hearing the tragic news this morning and my prayers are ongoing that you will be wrapped in the loving arms of God who is definitely weeping with you. I hope one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, will bring some comfort: "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

I am surrounding you in the love and light of Our Savior, who promises that you will all be reunited with Emma in heaven. On that day, He will wipe the tears from your eyes and oh, what a joyous sound will be made when you meet again. With love, Lisa Greco

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.

I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you. Ronald Steger and family

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

Estamos pidiendo a Dios que les de fuerza y paz en estos momentos sobre todos para que Cora este bien y pasen este traga amargo de la mejor manera. Muchas veces cuando trabajo en la computadora y me equivoco, simplemente presiono la tecla "Comando" + "Z" la computadora regresa y tengo la oportunidad de hacerlo de nuevo, muchas veces en la vida quisiera hacer eso y no puedo, solo se que Dios tiene otro metodo, Dios presiona "Comando" + "S" para salvarme eternamente. No sabemos por que Dios permite cosas pero sabemos que Dios tiene el poder se SALVAR. Un abrazo fuerte para ti y tu esposa. Los queremos mucho. Cesar Covarrubias

May God be your greatest comforter at this time of grieve. May you be comforted to know that pretty soon, you will meet your loved one on that glorious morning when the dead will hear His voice and with triumph over death, we will all be united with them again. Yes, our God will wipe away all our tears. I pray that we meet her and others who have gone before us on that great morning.

Dear Wendy and Daniel, As you are engulfed in a storm that no human being should ever have to face, know that we are lifting you up in deep love and fervent prayers. Though we cannot feel the depths of your pain, those of us who are parents can, to some small degree, imagine the horror of your loss. May our tender Heavenly Father carry you close to His heart as you face the days and weeks ahead. With much love and deepest sympathy, Silvia and Gianluca Bacchiocchi

Dear Neighbors, Daniel, Wendy and Cora...I am Vincent and Cedric's Grandma. Cora used to like to swing with my grandsons in our front yard. Robb and Kristina were so very shocked and saddened to learn about Emma today. Know that all of us are praying for you and sending our deepest condolences and prayers. Like you, they look forward to meeting one of their little ones when Jesus comes again. And dear grandparents, Eduardo and Silvia, as grandparents who also grieved the loss of a grandchild, we feel your pain and long for the day when these precious little ones will be returned to their parents (and grandparents) arms! Until then, their souls are safe in Gods keeping and He promises to uphold, comfort and give us peace and hope until Jesus returns. Again, we're so very, very sorry. Beyond words.... LuAnn Bermeo

My heart has been so heavy ever since hearing the tragic news this morning and my prayers are ongoing that you will be wrapped in the loving arms of God who is definitely weeping with you. I hope one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, will bring some comfort: "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

I am surrounding you in the love and light of Our Savior, who promises that you will all be reunited with Emma in heaven. On that day, He will wipe the tears from your eyes and oh, what a joyous sound will be made when you meet again. With love, Lisa Greco

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.

I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you.

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Wendy and Daniel, No one can feel your pain but Jesus. How can anyone on earth understand and try to comfort you? Even so, many of us are affected by your situation and feel the pain of this unspeakable tragedy in some way. While we cannot imagine the depth of your anguish, I hope you can imagine and feel the amount of tender love and compassion pouring out from heaven and earth towards you, your husband and family. Those of us reaching out to love you wish this horrible accident had never happened. But now that it has we try to respond in the most loving and sensitive way. I, who never have met you or any of your family, am taking time out of my day to reflect on your pain and your loss but also, and more importantly, on drawing nearer to Christ over this topic with questions like what does Jesus do about this? In my reflection I have focused how Jesus helped the Steve Curtis Chapman family during and after the similar tragic loss of their daughter. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oARDMKndTww,) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIxwBvfaHPA) Daniel and Wendy, I pray that you may find healing, peace, greater faith in Jesus and lots of abounding love. Please know that I have been blessed today by drawing nearer to God and to your family through prayer. Blessings to you!

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

Estamos pidiendo a Dios que les de fuerza y paz en estos momentos sobre todos para que Cora este bien y pasen este traga amargo de la mejor manera. Muchas veces cuando trabajo en la computadora y me equivoco, simplemente presiono la tecla "Comando" + "Z" la computadora regresa y tengo la oportunidad de hacerlo de nuevo, muchas veces en la vida quisiera hacer eso y no puedo, solo se que Dios tiene otro metodo, Dios presiona "Comando" + "S" para salvarme eternamente.

May God be your greatest comforter at this time of grieve. May you be comforted to know that pretty soon, you will meet your loved one on that glorious morning when the dead will hear His voice and with triumph over death, we will all be united with them again.

Dear Wendy and Daniel, As you are engulfed in a storm that no human being should ever have to face, know that we are lifting you up in deep love and fervent prayers. Though we cannot feel the depths of your pain, those of us who are parents can, to some small degree, imagine the horror of your loss. May our tender Heavenly Father carry you close to His heart as you face the days and weeks ahead. With much love and deepest sympathy, Silvia and Gianluca Bacchiocchi

Dear Neighbors, Daniel, Wendy and Cora...I am Vincent and Cedric's Grandma. Cora used to like to swing with my grandsons in our front yard. Robb and Kristina were so very shocked and saddened to learn about Emma today. Know that all of us are praying for you and sending our deepest condolences and prayers. Like you, they look forward to meeting one of their little ones when Jesus comes again. And dear grandparents, Eduardo and Silvia, as grandparents who also grieved the loss of a grandchild, we feel your pain and long for the day when these precious little ones will be returned to their parents (and grandparents) arms! Until then, their souls are safe in Gods keeping and He promises to uphold, comfort and give us peace and hope until Jesus returns. Again, we're so very, very sorry. Beyond words.... LuAnn Bermeo

My heart has been so heavy ever since hearing the tragic news this morning and my prayers are ongoing that you will be wrapped in the loving arms of God who is definitely weeping with you. I hope one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, will bring some comfort: "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.

Daniel, Wendy, Sylvia, and Eduardo, My heart broke when I heard the news while in the Philippines. I wish I was in Berrien Springs so I could do something "tangible", but please know my prayers have been ascending for your healing during this time of numbing grief. Remember that Jesus was ever the lover and defender of children. We can trust Him and His word. We know Emma is resting in Jesus and He will awaken her one day just as he did the young girl in the New Testament. I pray for the ministry of the Holy Spirit in you lives as you go through the grieving process. Try to focus on the beautiful times you shared with Emma during her short life on earth and not dwell on the tragedy of her passing. God bless each of you, rest inHis love and mercy.

Dear Daniel and family: My heart aches and tears well up in my eyes as I hear of your loss. As I am writing, with my own baby in my arms, I cannot imagine the pain that you must be going through. The words written in the Great Controversy, page 645 come to mind: "Little children are borne by holy angels to their mothers’ arms." It is to this beloved hope that we cling to. "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus." May the Lord hold you in the palm of His comforting hand! Our thoughts and our prayers are with you. Ronald Steger and family

Precious children of our Heavenly Father - if your eyes were opened to see - Angels that excel in strength are surrounding you the comforting arms of God hold you. I can only imagine the pain and heartache you suffer. Psalms 57:1-3 basically says, hide under the shadow of my wings until these calamities are past - it is me (God) that doeth all things for you. I can only hold your whole family up in prayer. In His love....

Just this morning, before learning of your terrible loss, I was listening to the song, "Lord, I Need You." The words "when I cannot stand, I'll fall on you, Jesus you're my hope and stay" stuck with me and so my prayer for you is that you will "fall on Jesus" remembering his certain promise of presence with us in any and every circumstance of life. "I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matt. 28:20), "I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you." (John 14:18) Jodie Howell, Orlando, Florida

Dear Wendy and Daniel, No one can feel your pain but Jesus. How can anyone on earth understand and try to comfort you? Even so, many of us are affected by your situation and feel the pain of this unspeakable tragedy in some way. While we cannot imagine the depth of your anguish, I hope you can imagine and feel the amount of tender love and compassion pouring out from heaven and earth towards you, your husband and family. Those of us reaching out to love you wish this horrible accident had never happened. But now that it has we try to respond in the most loving and sensitive way. I, who never have met you or any of your family, am taking time out of my day to reflect on your pain and your loss but also, and more importantly, on drawing nearer to Christ over this topic with questions like what does Jesus do about this? In my reflection I have focused how Jesus helped the Steve Curtis Chapman family during and after the similar tragic loss of their daughter. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oARDMKndTww,) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIxwBvfaHPA) Daniel and Wendy, I pray that you may find healing, peace, greater faith in Jesus and lots of abounding love. Please know that I have been blessed today by drawing nearer to God and to your family through prayer. Blessings to you!

Dear Gonzalez family, Your grief and heartbreak are immense, beyond words, and the blackness that seems to envelop everything may feel unending now. Give to God your grief and sorrow. Lean on Him and His promises. He feels your pain and loss. May the promises that follow sustain you in your relationship with God. "Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Rev 21:1-5 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev 22:20 "God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and discern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co-workers with Him." DA 224 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isa 41:10

But it is impossible to grasp the intense and immense pain you are experiencing. While I was with you this morning not long after the accident, it was so difficult to say anything that could make sense in a moment like this. One thing we know: God feels your pain and is committed to be wtih you during this difficult time of excruciating and painful loss. Our prayers are with you and will continue to be wtih you.

Sylvia, Eduardo,Wendy, and Daniel Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. Somehow, faith based people can reach into the inventory of tools that only God can provide. Have faith that your tool chest is full - and you will know how to use the tools and when. I know the Gonzalez family will serve as an exmple how Christ centered families behave in crisis. You have the metal to do this. I am sorry you have to show your courageous/faith based 'metal' again - but you do. God loves you and your family and He weeps with you.
