“Today, my heart and the hearts of my colleagues here are broken, especially the hearts of the citizens in southwest Missouri and Oklahoma, as we ache and mourn the devastating loss of Natalie and Davy Lloyd. Last month, their lives were tragically cut short by gang violence in Haiti while they were serving as missionaries at an orphanage. Natalie and Davy were too good for this Earth. They were steadfast disciples of Christ, walking in his footsteps and spreading his love to all that they encountered. Their faith was a guiding force that shaped every aspect of their lives. As we struggle with the pain of their loss, let's draw strength from the knowledge that they are now reunited with their Heavenly Father for all eternity. Rest in peace, Natalie and Davy. Your faith-filled lives will continue to inspire us forever. You will be dearly missed. ____________________”
