Deborah Pfingston shares of her loss.  She lost her son, Andrew Sterling Ashcraft, on June 30th, 2013.  He was a wildland firefighter and lost his life along with the crew of the Granite Mountain Hotshots.  It was a very public loss.  But that is not what she shares here.  Deborah shares a short story when her faith was put to the ultimate test.  Is heaven for real?  

Deborah's story was part of a video series done by Melodee Tonti - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DVM94otG0D0&feature=youtu.be.  Please take the 20 minutes to watch.  This video is beautifully done and you will understand more of what a parent deals with when they lose a child.

The loss never ends and never stops hurting.
