Welcome to our world!

Valerie's new nephew arrived last night in San Luis Obispo.

Brady Valen Theule. Born to Chad and Julie Theule. A gift from God Most High to us.

Like his aunt Valerie, his Latin name, Valen, means healthy and strong. A warrior.

May God's hand be upon him. May he grow and prosper. May Jesus Christ be glorified in his life.

To my wife Nancy in San Luis Obispo. Happy 43rd anniversary today beloved. Your gift should be arriving today from the hospital.

What a beautiful blessing from above! I love the name and know Val would be very proud to share her name with little Brady. I pray that he grows up knowing the strength and courage his Aunt Valerie displayed to everyone who knew her.

Julie- great job and maybe someday when you're visiting San Diego we can introduce Hunter to little Brady. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

Take care and congratulations!!!!

Love,
Deanna

Hello Valerie's family, I can only leave a comment on this birth announcment, but it's April 6th now. I just wanted to let you know that your family is in our thoughts and prayers as we are entering the week before Val's and Tim's passing. Jim and I were meeting with some families not far from the McCrea house. We were lifting Stacy and her kids and Chris and his kids up in prayer and I just wanted you to know that Val's passing is still so on our hearts. We grieve the hardship of this time last year and the sufferings endured and shared. Know that you are in our thoughts and prayers as we remember Tim and Val. Love, Kristi and Jim Rider

Julie and Chad,

What a wonderful blessing and what a beautiful baby boy! I love his name and as Deanna stated Val would be proud to share his name.

This week Val has been heavy on my heart. As the anniversary of her passing is closer I pray for peace for all of the Sloan, McCrea and Theole family. I can't help but miss her so much. I look forward to coming out to San Diego and seeing all of you next month.

God bless all of you!

Love always,

Marianne

Congratulations to Julie and Chad...I know Val must be looking down from above and be very proud and honored you chose her name.

Congratulations to Richard and Nancy as you celebrate your anniversary. What an awesome example you set.

Chris, can't wait to spend some time with you and the boys again.

You are all in our prayers as the one year mark approaches. There is no day that she goes unthought of and I just want you all to know that through her death, I have come to know and love the lord in a new and amazing way. My life will never be the same.

Thank you for continuing to post on the blog.

God Bless,

Jody Evans
