Words from JR Price's Family

Dear Loved ones:

Our son J.R. passed away last night in Provo. Thank you so much for all of your prayers and fasting. We appreciate your sacrifices and love shown to us. His body fought this ARDS for eleven days but it was too much for him. We love him so much. We were by his side virtually 24/7 since New Year's Eve. It was a sweet time we had together. Jessica might send more details. Yesterday morning his oxygen level was at 82 and it gave us so much hope that this ailment was perhaps leaving, but we really said goodbye to him on Sunday night as his brother Rick was leaving to go back to school in Los Angeles, and his vital signs were not looking good. We had a family prayer and Rick gave a beautiful prayer to our Father in Heaven. We are grateful to all of you for your faith and prayers and fasting in our behalf. He received several blessings and countless prayers. The funeral will be this Friday or Saturday in Sandy, Utah. We will let you know more as the day progresses.

With love and gratitude for our Heavenly Father's kind mercies and the atonement of Jesus Christ, which helps us all through our daily struggles. We are grateful to the Holy Ghost for his strength and comfort.

Rick, Nancy and family
