On June 29, 2013 we were awakened about 4:30 a.m. with a call from our son, Jason. We were heartbroken to hear that our grandson, Tyler Stuart, had been killed in an accident the evening of the 28th of June. We were going to be released and come home on July 6, but with this news we were released and returned home on July 3, 2013. We were anxious to get home to be with Jason at this most difficult time of loss. We served in the temple starting at 6:30 a.m. on the 29th and it was amazing the "tender mercies" that we received. As we arrived at the front doors we were met by Nick and Acia Chemozov and they gave us a beautiful painting of sunflowers that Acia had painted. We also received a beautiful note from Nick's parents, Sergei and Valentina. None of them knew at that point that we had lost our grandson in a tragic accident. Jay said that as he sealed that day in the Kyiv Temple he felt Tyler's presence.
