Yea Kelly he certainly had um lining up. Last night was prom. Many of his friends stopped by to let us know they dedicated the prom to Jeff. They all said it just won't be the same this year. To me life won't ever be the same.

Next sat his HS class will graduate. We have 2 tickets to attend. Not sure if I can but I do want to see all his friends graduate.

Tomorrow is mothers day and it will be another hard day

on a happier note Tiff graduated yesterday with her BA in forensic psychology. I am so proud of her and I know Jeff is also.
 

Congrats to Tiff, and best of luck to her.

Hug Momma for us all, and keep working together to get through it.

We're all behind you Dan, and I am heartened every time I see you post.
 
Congrats Tiffany! The very best of luck to you in law school!

I hope you get to go to graduation Dan. :)
 
Dan, you are still in my thoughts and prayers every day, Just keep working thru it. You have so much to be proud of - Congrats Tiffany!,
 
Dan, I'm sure today has been especially hard for your wife. It sounds like you guys have had some good things happen lately though. We're still praying for ya'll.
 
Me too Dan....Ive thought about you a couple of times today...wondering how you and the wife are handling things. I hope you guys are pulling through this rough day.
 
:grouphug: to your entire family.


As hard as it will be to attend the graduation, I hope that you and your wife find the strength to do so.
 
What a hansome young man, I am very sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how yesterday must have been for your family, we will be praying for your family to heal from this tragedy. It looks like he made a difference in a lot of people's lives. God bless you, The Matthews
 
Tiffani and I head down to nova southeastern university tomorrow. She has law school orientation on wed. Then we move her down this weekend and she starts next Monday.

I am so proud of her and I know Jeff is also. We all still love and miss him so much.

Yesterday was tough on Kris. Her first mothers day without Jeff.
 
You really do have a lot to be proud of, I know Jeff is there with you and so proud. My heart goes out to Kris, yesterday had to be hard. I think about your family every day, one day at a time.
 
Dan and Kris-

This thread started up when I was taking a break from the Boards.

I read the whole thing a while ago, and I have meant to post, but I know there is nothing that I or anyone else can say which could possibly make you feel any better.

I know that we have not yet actually met, but we have discussed things here on the Disboards, and maybe someday we will actually meet face to face.

For some reason, I felt like I should post today. Maybe I do have something to say that might be of some small help.

Unfortunately, I know a little about how you feel, and what you are going through. I lost my young nephew through what we will just call a medical accident seven years ago. This loss was hard on me, but I cannot even begin to fathom how it felt to my Brother in Law and Sister In Law. I don't like to think about it, and I still won't talk about it, and I was only his uncle.

I know that there is no greater loss than that of a parent losing a child.

Nothing compares to it.

Nothing.

You have my deepest sympathy.

Go ahead and cry. Go ahead and grieve. It hurts. I am sorry to say that it always will. How could it not? But, I also know that you can find some comfort in the love of friends and family, and it is my prayer that you will embrace your family and friends, and that their love will help carry you through your grief. Don't worry about what people say about things getting better, and wonder why you don't feel that way. Stop questioning yourself. Grieve the way you need to. But, accept the love that is offered to you.

That is all I have to say about that.

TCD
 
Just keeps getting better. Just got a call my mother died this morning.

Boy will I ever be glad to see 2010 go away.
 
Oh Dan...:hug: I was just thinking about you too. As I do every Friday especially. I'm so sorry. Though..that seems so inadequate.
