Alanna, I am so sorry for your loss.  I pray that God will wrap you up in His loving arms and hold you close that you might feel His peace that passes all understanding.  I pray that the days ahead are filled with fond memories of times you shared with Norm and that those memories bring you comfort.  I pray that you will be comforted in knowing that Norm is now healed and tho in Heaven he remains with you in spirit. 

Lord, you say you don't give us anything we can't handle.  I pray that you will lift Alanna up moment by moment that she will feel your presence and know that she does not walk alone.  I pray that when she feels weak that you will surround her with your earthly angels to lift her up.  I pray that you would fill Alanna with hope, Lord.  Most of all, Lord, may she feel your love and know that she is Your child and You are always with her when she needs You.
