"Hello Bob, Betty, Jonathon and Ryan,
Even though I never met your daughter/mother I felt like a knew her somewhat. Reading Betty's book regarding Jonathon's journey and deliverance and how the experience shaped the lives of your family in response, made me feel as though I connected with her. My love flows to you all as you walk through the days of adjusting to the absence of her presence here on earth.
What an incredible experience for her to leave her earth suit behind and enter into heaven! Shalom to you dear friends.
Love,
Leah Sunquist (Steffen)"
