Anthony Villaflor was a sensitive and thoughtful young man who loved others well. The murder of his father when he was a young teen caused him to seek God, which ultimately led his mom, Erica, to a relationship with the Lord as well. In the spring of 2014, Anthony went to sleep and didn't wake up due to an accidental drug overdose. In today's episode I chat with Erica about Anthony's death, how it impacted her faith, and where she finds herself now. I believe you’ll be encouraged as you hear both sorrow and joy in her voice as she shares her story. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself crying … and laughing … along as you listen in to our conversation.
