Quote by Susan Claire Potts

“[...] we all die, and the length of our life has been set before the earth was formed. Sometimes God takes the little ones to keep the eyes of the rest of the family on Heaven. They will never forget where this road leads if one of their own has already come to the end of it.”

I think that is what Nathan did. He was not false or greedy. When the time came to go, he went.”
