These last couple of days have been a very trying and challenging time for our family. On Wed Oct 24th just after we arrived in Virginia, we recieved a phone call from my brother-in-law Paul. It was then that we got the news that his 15 month old twin boys had drowned, these sweet little innocent boys fought for their life until about 3:00 a.m. Jake and Josh died about an hour apart at VCU Hospital in Richmond, VA. They entered this life together and they left this life together, we know they are in a better place now, and as my mother-in-law said they were just to perfect for this world we live in. But we are just so grateful for having the knowledge we have and that we can be an eternal family.
