Dear Loftus Family, Last year I had the pleasure of teaching your son in our English class, working one-on-one with him on his writing, and he always talked of you, of taking care of his younger siblings, it was obvious that family meant so much to him. I am so sorry for your loss- for all of our loss. Josh had a kind, kind heart, that our world will greatly miss. I live in Colombia, South America now, so I was unable to come to the services, but I´ve been thinking a lot about Josh and all of us who were lucky enough to have him in our lives. Thank you for bringing him into this world- he was a special guy.  - Liz Proper
