I watched the service and I enjoyed hearing about the sweet things the kids did. They sure liked mother nature and hearing the little stories personalized them. Several times it was mentioned the boys are now in their mother's arms. I think so too. It was a nondenominational service and interesting to hear from the different religions. Not too long or drug out. Could have heard more about the boys. They are both buried together in one casket. R.I.P. Charlie and Braden.

I would imagine Josh was cremated. I don't think his gravesite would have been left alone. It was a nice service and the boys are at peace.

Tears shed for those that truly loved these boys.

Comfort wished to those left behind.

Eternal punishment to the one that caused this tragedy.

It was nice to read about these little boys and to focus on the positive. I know that they are free of the pain and suffering they went through at the end, and they would want their family to be at peace for them. They were special little spirits and they are moving forward in a good way. The bad feelings and finger pointing needs to stop in honor of these boys who were able to love like the Savior loves. Our society needs to learn from this by implementing changes where needed, but they also need to honor these boys by letting go of all the negatives. I have spent the last week in disgust for a human being, but the words of this article reminded me of focusing on the good of two innocent and now perfect little boys. I kind of forgot to take the Pollyanna approach for a minute.

And Now Let's hope the Media will also rest.

I only wish the punk had done one decent thing in the end and left information about where his wife's remains are so that the family can have some closure!

Unfortunately, TJ, a man who was capable of doing this to two small boys to keep them from their grandparents, isn't the type of man who would have left a note telling them where their daughter is so they could have some closure.

I'm glad the families put aside their differences for this funeral.

What happened has, I don't pray, or wish the 2 families get along... Just do what needs to be done for them 2 boys.
