We met with Mike shortly after the loss of our son Connor. No words can describe the loss of a son and I WANT to tell you 3 years later that the pain gets better. It does not! The only hope and peace you will find is in your faith in which has sustained us. Please know that there is a mother and father out there that feels the pain of a lost son. Please contact us day or night as we love you and feel your pain. We want to ease your pain any way that we can. We haven’t stop thinking about you since we read the news. The media can be cruel.

When they pour out their hearts to You, may they discover that You are their Refuge,  their Comfort and their Strength.
In the midst of deep sorrow may they sense the warmth of your Presence, that they may experience and embrace the peace and hope you have for them.
Lift them up and cause them to stand tall, for You, Lord, are the lifter of our faces.  Bless them, keep them, bind them together.  Be so real to them, and bring them the assurance of their loved one’s well-being.  We love you and trust you Lord.  We know this will not be wasted.
Amen.

Please accept our deepest sympathies with the loss of your son Ryan.  We were victims of Wesley Snyder’s ponzi scheme. We attended every meeting that was held when the story was in the news almost every day. One meeting that stood out for us was when you Mr. Brubaker spoke. Your compassion to us the victims was very evident as you spoke on our behalf and we so appreciated that.
We feel compassion for your family during this time and will be praying for supernatural strength for today and for the coming days ahead. May the Lord surround you and your precious family.
