I am a friend of Sherry Trump. We journeyed through women's Bible Studies over the years. So first of all, I'd like to extend my deep sympathy to that beautiful member of the family. I would say I've never witnessed such a detailed and comforting message of a followup of extreme personal loss done as well as this one Kristin. It is absolutely wonderful to hear how each member of Elliot's immediate family is doing since this life altering event occurred. Thank you, thank you for your living testimony to your faithfulness to your Savior and of the goodness of God. I know you are blessed already, but knowing our Lord, the outflowing of blessing for sharing your faith will bring added blessing. Love to all of you. In Christ, Sandy Shaub

Thank you so much for sharing Kristen, as I have often wondered how you all are doing. Your honesty and testimony is such an encouragement. I praise the Lord for how I see Him sustaining you and your husband! May we all continue to grow in our hope of eternal glory.....living each day for that glorious one! 💙🙏🏻

Ben and Kristen, thank you for your honest reflection of this past year. I pray often for you and your family. Hold on to your faith, your marriage and continue to encourage us in grieving well. Thanks for the updates on Addelyn and Silas too.

Such an encouraging message. I have been praying for your family quite often over the past year and will continue to pray for joy, peace, comfort and purpose. God bless your beautiful family as you follow after him.

Thank you for being honest in sharing your deepest thoughts. I'm so glad God has shown Himself faithful even through your grief, pain and loss. May you continue to seek peace in Him. ❤️🙏

Thank you for your courage in sharing your honest and raw journey of grief, love and faith, Kristin & Ben! So many emotions and thoughts flood my mind as I read it. We love you guys and continue to pray for you.

Jay & I are so proud of your family boasting in God’s grace and mercy and truth tried through this fiery trial. Your eternal perspective in the midst of such pain and loss. May His steadfast love continue lift you up like wings of eagles and may you continue to run the race keeping your eyes on Jesus the author and finisher of your faith. You continue to teach us how to grieve well! Trusting you to the God of all comfort!
