To Spencer's family,

When we love as deeply as we love our children, the loss must be so profound. I can't pretend to understand, but I can tell you how much we think of you each and every day and how hurt we feel for you all. The rest of us are reaching for our children and thanking God you have Ryan and Sophia to help you through the difficult days ahead. We are all in awe of the closeness and strength of your family and so very pleased that you also let your friends minister to you.

You don't know me, but since I became aware of Spencer I began praying. When I heard the outcome, my heart broke. I know Spencer received the ultimate healing, but that doesn't heal your hearts. Please know that many, many people are praying for you. People you don't even know. We are praying that God gets you through a time that you cannot get through yourself. And I truly believe the following:

"One day you will no longer remember him with tears, but instead remember him with smiles."

Personally, I didn't know your little boy, Spencer, but he was clearly loved by so many, many people and you know he felt that love every single day of his life!

The photos shared by family and friends exudes the happy life Spencer had and the joy he brought those around him.

Words cannot express how sorry I am for your loss.

Your entire family is in my thoughts and prayers,

Ryan, Anna, and Pat:

As I pray for Spencer I keep thinking of 1 Corinthians 13. The line about when I was child and especially the last line – “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.”

These three will always remain. Your love for Spencer, your love for each other will remain every day with your family. I know that he will touch your life everyday. He will be the strength that Ryan needs to turn a fly ball into a home run, the voice whispering in Ryan’s ear when he is about to forget a line in a school play, he will be the courage you need to ask the hard questions of life. He will be there every day making your family stronger. He is a beautiful angel that will surely know the score in every Red Sox game.

Take faith to know that all though we cannot explain or understand this tragedy. We know Spencer is now your Angel and he will provide strength to you and everyone you touch. Take hope to know that the lives Spencer touches will be stronger. Most of all, take love. Love and cherish your family and most of all the wonderful memories of Spencer.

All our Love and Friendship

I don't know you, but i feel like i do. A friend sent me the emails so i could be praying for Spencer and your entire family. I am so very sorry for your loss. I will continue to pray for all of you as you walk through this incredibly difficult season. Thank you for donating Spencer's organs---part of him will live on through those his little life has now saved. May God give you peace and richly bless you.

When school begins this year, I will miss Spencer’s smiling face, awesome attitude, enthusiasm, latest Aggie attire and most of all-- his sweet, kind, and gentle spirit towards others. I will also miss his "really high" high five's as he wanted to always jump up "high" to reach my hand on his way out of the gym.
It is so sad to think that our Boon Elementary family will be missing one of our precious 1st graders. I am sure this group of children will be somehow changed by the loss of their friend and classmate and I pray for strength and wisdom for all the parents as they attempt to explain the unexplainable to their 6 year olds.
I will think of Spencer with each game we play this year and make sure I give extra hugs to all the little ones-- because we just truly never know God’s plan.
May God hold your family gently in the palm of His hand and help you to find the kind peace that only He can give.

Dear Spencer. You are my favorite Aggie buddy and I will miss you so much. My favorite memories of you are when you would put on your Spider Man outfit and run around the house, sit at the computer and "surf the net" at the age of 4 or 5 (probably even sooner), and drive Ryan around in your "Aggie Escalade". You are the COOLEST kid I know!

You are our Aggie Angel sweetie! We love you so much!

Anna, Patrick and Ryan, My heart has been broken for you from the moment I got the call from Kay Schroeder on Saturday night to add your precious Spencer to the prayer list on Sunday morning at FUMC Lockhart. Many were praying that your son would be healed. He was healed but not the way we wanted him healed! I just remember him from Christmas Eve services or holidays, bounding down the aisle for Communion and thinking what a perfect family you all have created! His pictures and testimonies tell quite a story that is an example to all of us - "Live life to the fullest every day and love deeply because we do not know how long we have on this earth!" Please know that our constant thoughts and prayers are with you and will continue with you as you remember this precious gift from God every day of your lives.
