Condolence from Jodi Davis on November 30th, -0001 12:00 am

To Shawntay Cross and family,

It is such a difficult thing to understand when we lose a loved one, especially one still young and someone we are not prepared to let go.
I will support you, Shawntay as you return to work and I hope you feel free to share your feelings of loss with me. God has a great plan for all who go to be with him, so try to imagine your Father in a place so peaceful and full of love. Be assured that he will be watching over you because you have been a special daughter to him.
I am keeping you and your family in prayer.
Jodi, your Davita co-worker
