This morning I received a phone call from my Mom to inform me that my dear, Uncle Wallace passed away. My heart is breaking for my aunt, cousins, grandma and four of my brothers who he has helped raise since my Dad passed away 8 1/2 years ago. These brothers have now lost two fathers and it brings me such sadness for them.
This can be viewed as a tragedy but even though I am sad and don’t understand my Heavenly Father’s plan completely, I know this is destiny. Heavenly Father has a purpose for my Uncle Wallace, my Dad, my sister, Jacqueline, my brother, Nathan, my Uncle Milo and the many other family members and friends, who have left this earth at an early age and has returned home to live with Heavenly Father.
He must have a purpose for them in Heaven, where they’re needed most. This is where I find my comfort in death. Unfortunately, death has been a common thing for me as a child and an adult. But I do understand that I can be with those who have gone to be with Heavenly Father, again someday.
I send my love to all my family members and those affected by this. I truly love you all and hope you find some peace in this. May we all find some peace…
Families Are Forever

I've been thinking of you kids ever since I talked with Grammie Boo earlier. My prayers are with you and all of the Bushman family. Love ya tons!
The Lord has a way of knowing where we need to be strengthened and designing our trials for that purpose. It's easy to wonder why we have the trials we do but as we look back at those trial and where we are today, hopefully, we see the growth and strength that have come from them. My heart aches for Grandma Bushman, Jeannie and their kids. They'll need all of our love and support. I love you and I'm thankful for your faith and understanding of what life is all about. oxoxoxox
so sorry about your Uncle.
My prayers are with your family.
I'm thankful we can find comfort through the Gospel. It's hard to know why our family has to go through this again and why we lose so tragically and too young, but I know there is a purpose for them and for us.
I love you lots Bri!
That's awful news! I agree with Lou. Its so nice to know that we find comfort through the Gospel. Thank Goodness for a loving Heavenly Father who has given you the strength and testimony you need to face this trial.
My prayers are with you!
