		<description>Thank you so much for the comments you left on Russell's site. My heart was so lifted, by your words of understanding and compassion. Tears flowed from my eyes as I read these heart warming words. 
I want to leave a comment on your site, to thank you. You must have been through a lot during the 11 years of involvent in the lifestyle. I am thankful your mother did not have to go through what I have had to endure. Russell's dad is heartbroken too. Thank you for thinking about the hurt she might have had to go through. You have no idea what that means to me, to have you feel the hurt in my heart.
This has been a really hard to go through, losing our son, and being attacked on the Internet by gay activists. As you said, they don't even know us. I do hope many will come out of this lifestyle, before they die from AIDS. This lifestyle is devastating.
I have so much to tell, and will eventually get it all out. 
The reason I said part one, is I am going to address all the lies from other gay activists.
You have no idea how you have brought joy to my heart by your posting these comments.
May God bless you for doing what you are doing, and may you continue to witness against this lifestyle.
I will leave a comment on your site.

		<description>Hello Mrs. Groff. You dont have to post this comment but I just wanted you to personally let you know that my heart is truly broken reading this and grieved that your son was taken away.

Moreover, I am angry that gay activists have attacked and maligned your family to conceal the truth about homosexuality and its deadly consequences. They will spare no lie to defend themselves unfortunately at the cost of many unsuspecting souls.

You probably dont know first hand what goes on in "gay lifestyle" but I do and did for 11 years of my life. Thank God he rescued me from it or else I would surely have died in it. You are not off the mark in what you have written.  Trust me, I have personally counseled and prayed for hundreds of young men who want out of that lifestyle but the deception is so pervasive. Only God can give freedom from it.

Of more alarm to me is that homosexuality has been imported into the church via false teachings on tolerance, acceptance and love and are deceiving many. Thus I have taken on the responsibility to  expose this error and rebuke the church for allowing God's house to become a den of thieves.

Thank you for speaking up and sharing your hurt. My mother would have lost me too and so I know how the way in which Russell was stolen is  deeply hurtful.

You are in my prayers and if you want to share anything on my blog www.gcmwatch.com you have an open door. Thank you for being courageous to speak out for truth.

May the peace that passes all understanding guard your heart.</description>

		<description>What a great comment! We appreciate your kind words with all our hearts. May God bless you for your ministry of love for the lost.  May God touch the hearts of those who have been so vicious to us.

It is true that these people will have to answer for what they have done. I would think they would have a hard time sleeping at night.

Thanks again for your compassion and love for Jesus.

		<description>I am very sorry for the actions of those doing this great "mischief" (Proverbs 4:16) at Russell's grave, and causing you more grief and pain. But as you said, God sees their actions and He won't forget.

I pray that the darkness and blindness will be removed from their spiritual eyes, and that they will see God in all of His glory, and worship the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ.

Praise God, He lives so that we might have life eternal.</description>

		<description>Thank you for your comment, it is a blessing to our hearts.

We do not know the whys, but we do trust and obey. God will take care of everything in his own time. 

We love our son so very much, no matter how much we are attacked for telling him the truth. We do pray that someone who is struggling with homosexual tendencies will know the pain that Russell suffered,( not from his parents) but from the gay lifestyle and his death of AIDS.</description>

		<description>The poem was very touching. I am so glad for this tribute to your son, and for your testimony to God’s grace in your lives.

I pray that this site will be used to reach out to those who are struggling with homosexuality– that they might know there is a way out of that lifestyle. The way out may be hard but it is not impossible with God’s help. 

We all struggle with sinful desires, but God is there for ALL who seek Him.

We do not understand the “whys,” but the God of the universe does! We serve a great God.</description>
