God's Timing is Perfect

He spared Andy and Ashley from having to decide to turn off the ventilator. Hudson passed away tonight at about 8 pm, while his mother was holding him. We are grateful for his sake that he has been set free from from his imperfect body and has been made new and whole again in the arms of Jesus.
Thank you for your prayers.

Makes me cry to read this, my heart goes out to your brother and his wife and all the family. I will definately keep everyone in my prayers. I cannot imagine losing a child. Makes me want to go wake up my sleeping babies and hold them. It breaks my heart. God Bless you all...

My prayers are with all of you. Hudson is safe. But we all still are broken with the loss of anyones child. When my niece passed away, my youngest niece said with awe "She gets to be an angel?" It hurt a tiny bit less for us.
Be blessed.

We are saddened to learn that Hudson's precious life here on earth has ended. We are heart-broken for his parents and family.

We are so proud of Hudson and of his mommy and daddy.

It's an answer to prayer...that after mom and dad made the decision to let Hudson go...that God took him Himself. Now mom and dad can rest that they had made the right decision.

Our prayers are with all of you left behind.

Love and Hugs,
Jan & Tom
