Liz, Fred and I struggle every day to cope with our changed lives but Sam was a very special boy--kind and deeply thoughtful as you described. We are thankful that your family keeps him in your heart and we are deeply grateful that he was with us for the time he was.Marienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079994204474243813.post-84797608170383444412009-06-04T05:24:03.319-07:002009-06-04T05:24:03.319-07:00I will definitely remember to lift this family and...I will definitely remember to lift this family and your family up in prayers. What a blessing you are giving your own son by allowing him.. giving him permission.. to talk to his friend. Your son, much like yourself, are probably in a place where it is hard to know what to do. You are so right, sharing the stories, even though they may not come at first, is so important.Feliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09652468693297063378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079994204474243813.post-24026789529140305292009-06-03T06:36:19.614-07:002009-06-03T06:36:19.614-07:00Awww they are so cute!Awww they are so cute!Anjanette Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13977687574042215236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079994204474243813.post-63533641570570175612009-06-02T22:12:48.403-07:002009-06-02T22:12:48.403-07:00Beautiful post, Fiona.Beautiful post, Fiona.Shady Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05955726656904697280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079994204474243813.post-34197294874397047732009-06-02T21:45:57.636-07:002009-06-02T21:45:57.636-07:00What a beautiful post Fiona!

You did a beautiful job of trying to express some of the words to try to pay tribute to a young life that ended way too soon.<br /><br />Words, smiles, hugs... just being there for the family. The hole that was left in their life is unknowable. When events happen like this in life, you just realize how little possessions mean. How little it matters about what you wear or what you buy.<br /><br />Life is precious and short. Life is to live with family and friends. Life is to see and to experience beautiful sights with those that you hold dear. <br /><br />I will say a prayer for the family. Thank you.Hit 40https://www.blogger.com/profile/18043350255090631652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079994204474243813.post-17509331750794528502009-06-02T14:55:54.963-07:002009-06-02T14:55:54.963-07:00Fiona I knew you said there were a few deaths this...Fiona I knew you said there were a few deaths this year in your life I had no idea it was effecting your son...so sorry.
