You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Our daughter Nicole Stevens is a senior at Monticello High School and she was very saddened to hear of the loss of McKale. Please know our family is thinking of you at this very sorrowful time.
Dawn and family, this breaks my heart in so many ways. This beautiful boy and all he has given you and your family and others who knew him will be deeply missed. I can only imagine your pain and want you to know this truly makes my heart hurt and I am thinking of you. You and I can relate in ways many others can’t and Mckale and Jacob are the reasons you and I met. I wish for better days for you and all of your family. I’m so sorry to learn of this.
Our thoughts are with Dawn and her family/friends. One does not need to look far to find comfort in his presence in the stars above, always shining bright. McKale – you earned your wings. Until we meet again……..
