  7. Susie Schmidt, Prairie Village, KS (Kansas City, MO) says

    Dear Jimmy and Robbie:My sister, Doris Penter, called to tell me the awful news about J. Harris. I talked with Marilyn Fri night for a long time. I'm heart broken for all of you. It's so sad that such a tragedy has happened again to the Moon family. Marilyn said the service was beautiful and very meaningful. The Moons have always had a special place in my heart since you all 'took us in' when we Schmidts moved to Trumann in '65.Even though I didn't know J. Harris, I know he was a great person since he was part of a great family. I'm so deeply sorry that you had to bury your child and at such a young age.I know he is in heaven now and at peace with God and all of his angels. May prayers, family and friends help you through your grief and hopefully help to lift the burden you must now bear. That is my prayer for you, that God will see you through this and help you carry your cross.I put J. Harris' name in the book on Sun at Church of Nativity where I attend . Nov 1 is all Saint's Day in the Catholic church and Nov 2 is all Soul's day. He will be prayed for and remembered throughout the month of November by all 5,000 parishoners.May God's mercy bless you during your struggles. May you have the courage to find memories peaceful so they can move you forward.Much love,Susie Schmidt

Thank you for loving me the way you do and teaching me how to really truly love with all ones soul. I know that no matter what you will never leave my heart or my side, you will be there to dry my tears and hold my hand and be smiling down on me with your beautiful smile. You always told me I was your angel, but now baby you are my mine.
