Ms. Evans you have some idea what you're feeling like, I bury two of my children. And people have come up to you and are going to come up to you for some time and say I know how you feel. And after a while, you know everybody means well. If you're like saying you have no idea. That's you're all going to know that you're going to make it by holding each other together, most importantly by holding Logan and Abigail as tightly as you can. Because the longer you have them, you've got Billy.
