My heart goes out to the Braswell family.

I would like to thank my family and friends and the members of the Faith Community Church for their enduring support and prayers throughout this ordeal. I particularly want to thank my wife, Robyn, for being so strong and supportive from the beginning.

I am deeply saddened by this tragedy. My broken heart goes out to the family involved for the loss of their son.

We met with family members of the suspect and convinced the family members, when they heard from their son to have him turn himself in.

He's a fighter. The family is trying to stay calm.

The gift of the family novelist is to turn the cleaning of a closet into an inventory of love and loss-to scan a poem from a shopping list.
