I’ll never forget these words:
“Kendall’s holding me up right. I remember he used to always tell me not to cry. He’d say, ‘Don’t cry mommy. Be strong and don’t cry.’ So I’m trying not to”
I can’t even imagine what it’s like to lose a son. But what I do know is that you’ve got to be an incredibly strong woman to talk about memories like that and not get teary. God sure did give Mrs. Oates a strong heart.
I love you so much Kendall, rest in peace
Words can’t describe how hard today is going to be. Rest in peace Kendall
