Jace

Saturday night as i was driving Sarah to the Bellagio Sarah called my mom and instantly started asking what was wrong, my heart sank as tears filled Sarah's eyes. I was on the phone with Kaden when i imagined Lilo must have got ran over, (Sarahs dog) but as the words left her mouth i let out a scream i instantly understood what she was telling but i am not quite sure how well i was able to grasp what it meant. Jace Davis past away last night. How could that be true he is on his mission. Missionaries don't just pass away they are protected. My emotions have gotten the better of me for the past few days. I can't have any normal thought with out it finding its way to Jace. I know this will pass and this process of grieving is necessary but i do wish i could be happy for him and excited for the amazing mission he must be serving with our father in heaven. My thoughts and prayers have been with his amazing family and will continue to be for quite a while if not forever. His family has been through so much in just the past couple of months it breaks my heart to imagine this being added to it. Shawna Jesson pointed out though that have been through the refiners fire. They have been being prepared. I hope Jace's parents can find comfort at this time in knowing what an amazing son they raised. Jace always had such enthusiasm for life. He did everything with his full heart. I have been reflecting back on a lot moments i shared with him and i wish now that i would have taken more care to preserve them than i have. I have known Jace since the first week that my family moved to Logandale. I met him at church my first Sunday there and he honestly was probably the first boy to ever tell me i was hot. Haha i remember him adding me to msn and messaging me and saying hey you were the hot new girl at church right. Jace always had a way with the ladies :). I am sure he proposed to half our graduating class at least. Even though it was all fun and games he did have a way of making everyone feel special. Our senior year of high school we spent a good majority of our time together. We were both very into getting the year book just right and bossing around all the new year book kids. We had some days that we would just sit in the computer lab talking about life and our small problems that then seemed to be so big. I think Jace made sure i knew that i was beautiful everyday and that conley or joe were stupid for not being in love with me. I made sure that Jace knew the same thing about the girls he liked too. I have so many thoughts running through my mind of the things we did and how much he made me laugh. I hope that he knew what an influence he was on my life and how much he did to help me. Jace was one person who always stayed my friend no matter what, i haven't had very many of those people in my life but i am so grateful that i had him.
