I’m sharing with you that my beautiful baby boy, my angel, my sweet son is gone... a piece of my heart has been torn away... my beloved Scott Jarred Cohen passed away... Son, in the deepest part of my soul I know that you were resting peacefully with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and that he has you wrapped in his arms...”
She added, “how I loved you son... so very deeply... how I will always love you... and how I so very much treasured being your mom, the greatest gift of all, the greatest treasure, the greatest honor, the greatest present that God could give us."
