    Dear Hallee and Gregg,

    I met Hallee once at a coffee shop in Clarksville. I remember her speaking of her family and of your beloved Jeb. I am so grieved by his passing … so grieved by the pain you must bear. I am amazed by the number of people who showed up for his funeral. I am so grateful that you felt community despite your recent move. I will continue to pray for your family. This phrase from the hymn *How Firm a Foundation* comes to mind each time I think of you : “…and sanctify to you your deepest distress.” May you unmistakably feel the comfort of the One who comforts us in all our sorrow.

    Shalom,
    Yvonne MacKay

    I am friends with you on Facebook via my good friend Erin Nonaka. I am weeping as I read this. I am so very sorry for your breaking hearts. I know God is with you. Your faith and your community of support is inspiring. Things to be thankful for for sure. Yet, could never replace your son. I am not sure there could be “closure” but I hope in time some healing that only Jesus can bring. I will continue to pray for you and your family. I will also check out Goodreads.
    May God continue to hold you and bless you.

  1. I’m truly sorry to hear about the devastating loss of your son, Jeb. It’s heart-wrenching to read about the pain and sorrow you and your family are experiencing. Your blog post beautifully captures the depth of your emotions and the journey of grief you’re going through. I admire your strength and faith in such challenging times. May you find solace in the love and support of your community and the cherished memories of Jeb. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Shalom.

    Halle and Gregg,

    We met several times at Navigator bible study at Fort Knox and I attended one of your book signing parties on post. My deepest condolences on the loss of your son Jeb. Was so shocked and saddened to hear the news from the Murphys . Deepest prayers and sympathies for y’all and your other kids. Would like to follow up. Don’t post personal information online so disregard email address below. But if you are good with it, let the Murphys know and they will provide me your contact information in a more private manner. Deepest condolences again.
