Tim, your great grandmother Lil McGowan had 9 children and buried 6
She said the worst thing you can ever do in life is to bury a child. Your parents must now travel that road she knew well. May all of us pray for you in heaven and cradle in our arms your parents who are heartbroken at your loss. God Bless You! Cousin Janet & Auntie Pat
