Condolence: My heart aches for you, Charlie, Cindy and the McLane family to lose in death your precious loved one Connor, way too soon. No other pain will ever be greater than the pain of losing a child. Words are so limited that can give comfort, so I would like to share with you beautiful scripture where our loving heavenly Father, Jehovah God (Psalm 83:18), wants you to throw all your burdens on him and he will sustain you in your time of grief because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7, Psalm 34:18 None of us are guaranteed tomorrow, but we are all guaranteed a resurrection. Our precious savior, Jesus, promises us at John 6: 40; "For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who recognizes the Son and exercises faith in him should have everlasting life, and I will resurrect him on the last day". And again at: John 5: 28; "Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out..." And also at John 11:23-25; "Jesus said to her: "I am the resurrection and the life." The one who exercises faith in me, even tho he dies, will come to life". I pray that Jesus's promise to reunite us with our loved ones on resurrection day will carry you through the difficult days ahead and gradually replace your tears of grief with tears of joy as you reflect on your precious memories of happier times with Connor. Job asked at Job 14:14; "If a man dies, can he live again?" Job answers at Job 14:15; "You (Jehovah) will call and I will answer." Just like Job, we can have confidence in the resurrection hope. For more comforting scriptures please visit: http://bit.ly/1K38EFt. It has given me hope, strengthened my faith and helped me find the answer to Why? I know it will do the same for you. John 17:3 I pray you will find comfort reading the above scriptures in your personal Bible and to please watch this beautiful video (song 144) entitled "Keep Your Eyes on the Prize" https://tv.jw.org/#en/video/VODChildren/pub-pksn_24_VIDEO or watch this short, faith strengthening video: "Can The Dead Really Live Again?" https://vimeo.com/232445509 You are in my prayers during this very difficult time.

Condolence:

Condolence: Charlie, Cindy & Kayla There are no words that can convey our sorrow for you. I (Anna) was in a library kids program last summer and observed what I thought at the time was the nicest, gentlest, sincerest young man I had ever seen. The kids he was with just hovered around him, playing with him like he was their best friend. It was not until this very moment of reading Connors obituary that I realized I was observing your son. I had not seen him in many years and would have never picked him out in a crowd, he was all grown up! We can only imagine how proud you are of him. Our deepest sympathy, Randy & Anna

Condolence: Our deepest sympathy for all of you Charlie. We are very sorry for your loss; I don't have any words to express how we feel. May God receive Connor with open arms and May God help you, Cindy and Kayla to deal with this tragedy and find peace. My family is praying for you all. Much love to you guys.

Condolence: Our thoughts and prayers are with this family. We lift you all up in prayer as you continue life's journey. Did not know Connor, but from the readings about Connor, he was a special young man!

Condolence: McLane family, From Susan and I, we send you our heartfelt condolences. We will offer up prayers for you all, and Connor. I am not sure that I have ever met someone so accepting and loving of other people than Connor. It seemed that Connor's goal in life was to make everyone else feel better and to laugh. I was always happy to see Connor coming because I knew that he would make me smile and laugh. Connor was a genuinely, true, good person. We all need to be more like Connor. We are truly sorry for your loss. I will miss him. Thoughts, prayers, and condolences.

Condolence: We do not know you very well-our neighbors on Ramey Road-but our hearts ache for you during this sad, sad time. We so deeply wish we had gotten to know you all better prior to this tradgey but if there is anything at all you need please let us know. Praying daily for your healing. Our # 828-349-9419 Shaun & Ashley Harper

Condolence: My deepest sympathies to your family for the loss of your beloved Connor. I pray our Lord's deep abiding love will embrace you and comfort you.

Condolence: Charlie and Family, Chris and I are so very sorry for your loss. There is little that I could say to ease your hearts but we want you to know that you all are in our thoughts and prayers. Peace be with you and your family.

Condolence: May the Lord's love and peace be near to you now and always. Dale

Condolence: Dear Charlie, Cindy and Kayla, Along with so many others, our prayers and love are with you during this time of grief. Words cannot express enough of the comfort and strength we pray for you. Only God can give you what you need to see you through the days ahead. We trust He will and want you to know that we hurt with you but we also trust that the God Who loves us all beyond our understanding will cover you with His Grace and carry you through. In the meantime be comforted to know that Connor rests in the arms of the Loving God he served here on earth and you will see him again someday.

Condolence: Those we love remain with us for love itself lives on, and cherished memories never fade because a loved one's gone. Those we love can never be more than a thought apart. For as long as there is a memory, Connor will be in your hearts forever. Jay and I are sending love, thoughts and prayers to you and your family during this difficult time.

Condolence: Our prayers are with you and family and close friends of Connor. Just remember him while you had him and know that his spirit survives eternally as Pastor Ben has pointed out---we cannot hope to understand tragedies which are part of human life but in some cases greater blessings occur from these in God's timing--not ours. Our lives are but a grain of sand--some longer some shorter--but eternal life for believers is forever and Connor was one. He is out of human pain and disability and his organs are saving the lives of others. Keep the faith as we mourn your loss with you. In Christ, Dr. Avery and Cara Brinkley

Condolence: Dearest Cindy and family.... Our hearts are touched and hurting with you..

He has it all in His hands!Praying that He will minister comfort to your hurting hearts & brush away your tears in the most amazing ways that you could never even imagine! Death here on this earth is not the end of life to a child of the King... It's only the beginning of eternal life where parting and goodbys are not a part of the language of that new eternal home!!!! PTL we will meet again one day soon and this time it will be forever!!!!! We send all our love and prayers.... Pastor Ben & Alice
