off topic but please hug your children and tell them you love them today

Thanks to you all. I am heading out to Tenn. her funeral is on Sunday. This is very hard on Tiff and Ash. They just lost their brother and now their grandmother. Tiff has to be in Ft. Lauderdale on Tue to start Law School.

Its going to be a whirlwind few days.
 
Dan, I'm sorry for yet another loss to your family. :hug: Safe travels to you and your family back and forth from Tennessee.
 
Dan I am so sorry to hear about your mother. Please be safe in your travels. :hug::hug::hug::hug:
 

Dan, I cannot express how sorry I am that you and your family are going through this. Will continue to pray for you guys. Please be careful in your travels.

I have a very good friend that lost a daughter two years ago. Within weeks, his father passed away. Many of us figured the stress of everything the family had been through was too much. I tend to believe the Lord did not want that little girl to be in heaven without family to comfort her, so He brought her grandfather home to be together with her. I don't know if you can find any comfort in that thought, but I do believe that Jeff and his grandmother are hugging right now.
 
Dan, I am so sorry. I just don't know what to say. Wish there was something I could do for you and your family.
 
Dan,, I am so sadden to hear this happening. I can't begin to imagine how hard this must be for your family. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and family.
 
Dan, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. You know my first thought was, she has joined her grandson and now they are together. I know that would be a wonderful thought to me, to know they are not alone. Be safe in your travels....
 
Dan, may God give you the strength to go on each day, even though it seems like there is no end to the stress and grief. May he give you peace and courage to go on and the blessings of safe travel so that you may come back to be the wonderful father, husband and grandfather to your girls and wife. They need you more than ever now. :hug:
 
Dan, may God be with you as you go through yet another loss. As I wrote on your wall on FB, it is so hard to lose someone who has been a part of your life since the day you were born. We are here for you if you need anything.
 
Oh Dan. I'm so sorry to read this news. When words fail me, songs fill the void...

Here are the words...

I pray you'll be our eyes
And watch us where we go
And help us to be wise
In times when we don't know

Let this be our prayer
As we go our way
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe

I pray we'll find your light
And hold it in our hearts
When stars go out each night
Remind us where you are

Let this be our prayer
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe

We ask that life be kind
And watch us from above
We hope each soul will find
Another soul to love

Let this be our prayer
Just like every child
Needs to find a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe

Need to find a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe


May God be with you, Dan.
 
I don't know what to say except that I will continue to pray for you and your family. I am so sorry.
 
Hi Dan,
I am so sorry for the losses you are enduring. I've been following the thread, but don't really know you so was hesitant to post.

I want you to know that there are others who understand you and your grief. Many, many of us have been through a traumatic loss. In reading your posts, all those feelings came rushing back to me. The anger, the fear, the emptiness, the confusion, the total inability to function some days. You are not alone, and never will be.

It sounds as if your son and your family are very loved and cared for - that is so awesome! A support system right now is so important. And it says a lot about you.

Two things that might help you through this, and take from my post what you will, are things that I think helped me.

First, don't fight the "current" of grief. Tread water, lie on your back and float, let yourself grieve. Don't forget to take deep breaths and pace yourself.
Second, talk your face off. Tell anyone who will listen how you are feeling and tell loads of stories about your son. I see this board is a great venue for that.

I hope you are having safe travels this weekend as you start yet another grieving process. I am so terribly sorry for your losses. You and your family are in my prayers.

:hug:
 
Mothers funeral is today at 4:30. They put pic of jeff in her coffin. Still hurts like crap to see his pic there. This would be so much easier to deal with had jeff not died. Now all this just brings it all flooding back
 
This has become the most-watched thread here, I have no doubt. My prayers are coming as hard as I can send them Dan. I don't know what else to say.
 
Dan, I read this on Fri. and couldn't believe it. I didn't post because my computer was down.
I am so sorry for your loss, please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
No words said can make it any easier, but we are here for you and wish I could do more.
