Comments: your website was beautiful. i lost my beautiful daughter october 24, 1999, one week to the day after her 21st birthday because of a drunk driver, this will be his third conviction. so i know how you feel and the pain i know will only ease with time, but nothing will ever be the same. but it helps to hear other peoples stories and doesn't make me feel that i'm the only person this ever happened to.

Comments: Nancy,

I have a memororial for my Mom and my friend on this web site. I want to thank you for creating this site, I often visit.

As I read your memorial page I can feel your pain of losing a son. I have a son and two daughters and I know the love a mother has for her children. To lose a son or daughter has to be devastating! To lose a loved one is so hard! I cry with you.

I lost my Mom, two aunts, two uncles, a very close friend- Cindy Wagner, my father-in-law, my brother-in-law, and two other friends in about a year's time. I am not over all the grief yet. It is very difficult and I still cry and mourn because I miss my loved ones!

God bless you Nancy and you are in my prayers. I ask the Lord to give you peace, comfort and strength.

In Christ's Love,
Judy

Comments: On 1/19/00 my brother Ralph passed away. He had been very sick mentally and physically for many months. Ralph served in the Vietnam war from 1965 to 1966. He was in the 101st infantry better known as the Big Red One. Ralph apparently never got over all he saw there. He was always my big brother, being 15 yrs older. I only wish that I had reached out to him more often. But I was there for him when I think he most needed it. It just hurts so bad.

Comments: My name is Debbie,I two lost a loved one a husband and father to my kids.He and his brother were killed in a traffic accident.
My life has been a roller coaster many ups and downs.
Life has been difficult but I can do it I've had to for not only me but my kids.
I've moved away from his family,this hurt them much but it was hard living in my old home.I even met someone who truly cares about me and the kids,but his family dislikes him.
Why??? Well a transport truck killed my husband and my new boyfriend happens to drive one.I never even asked him what he did for a living when I first met him,it didn't matter to me.All that was important was that he cared for me and the kids.
Death hurts it causes alot of pain.I wish I could take their pain away.
Why is it so difficult to accept when someone wants to go on with life??My lates family always says your like a sister/daughter but now that someone else is in my life it changes???
Theres so much more hidden behind my husbands death(Booze,drugs)I knew all this even his siblings did but not his mom&dad.
I had to hid my pain not giving myself time to grieve because I was asked to think of others and their suffering.
Why are people sometimes selfish when it comes to death??The family is angry at me for picking up and moving away because they feel I need to continue to grieve in pain.His family still suffers greatly,why can't they accept that I am too.Just because I moved on with life dosen't mean I don't grieve.Life doesn't stop when theres been a death.
My mother in law wrote a letter to me stating I'll see whats fair??? This comment confused me.
his family was always alittle strange but I loved them all.They seem more concerned with MONEY$$$$.
I received a large amount of compensation thru insurance.It paid off all the debts even to his family which they wanted right away.I considered this money Blood Money.
My kids are well taken care of its what he would of wanted,but his brothers daughter received a smaller amount and the family is upset over that.
I almost wished his mom was beneficery to the estate that way all members would be compensated.Its like their hands are out waiting for money$$$$.
No one benefits from death.Its a pain that hurts crushing the soul.
I cried when I read your letter it sounded just like me always thinking of others before yourself.I was brought up that way,always think of others first,its better to give the receive...
I've learned to live with him gone constant reminders of him are with me daily(his kids).I will always remember him and his brother even though I've chosen to continue with life.His family have put their lives on hold.They continue to mourn and always will,they are hurt that my mourning has past.I will grieve as its said it will be my companion forever.
I loved him and always will.
My new life has brought me happiness,I will never forget my past even though its behind me but its the future that lies ahead.I have chosen my path and I know someday it will lead me to him.
Debbie
God bless you

Comments: I wanted to thank-you for the beautiful memorial you created for my son, Stephen M. Tosh and to let you know that I wanted to create some others, so I
followed your page and was interested in your angels. Your story really touches my heart, because besides Steve,
I also lost a baby to SIDS when she was 7 days old. When you experience something like that you feel like you can never do it again and you hope and pray you won't have to.
And I thought there was no pain as great as having to select that small pink coffin and watch that small body be buried when every fiber of my body was screaming to pick her up and warm her little body and bring life once again to it.
But then the morning came when they came to tell me about Steve. We had spent years apart because he had lived with my parents, so we had only been back together for a few years.
I won't tell you he was a saint, because he wasn't. And that boy-man could make me angrier then any human being on earth has ever been able to. We were so much alike that I often
knew what he was thinking. He never got into big trouble, but he kept me hopping in high school. Then he married a little red-haired girl and immediately gave me a grand=daughter. Then 2 yrs. later he
gave me another. He never really got to know her and then he was gone. After burying both my parents within the last four years, I had to oversee his arrangements. I didn't know if I could go on
but somewhere I found the strength to hold up for his wife and the babies.
No, the grief never goes away. You do feel it forever, but after a while, it hurts less and you begin to remember the good times that you had together and the reasons that are so dear to you. And if you have your faith you lean on that very strongly. If I didn't
believe he was in a better place, I couldn't go on. But Steve was always a fan of science fiction, and I picture Heaven as a real paradise for hem and my little girl, and my parents, and my Husband who passed away a year later.
So I am not writing this to re-open your grief but to let you know that others do understand sometimes and to tell you that there is light at the end of the tunnel
Sincerely,
gtosh@bellsouth.net

Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. I am finding out that
the grief period for the loss of a loved one goes on forever.
It doesn't seem to get better with time for me and from your
very touching memorials it appears that even after two years
the pain is great. God bless you.

Comments: I would like to tell both families that I am thinking about them today. I know how hard it is on a day like this. It just seems like yesterday that Scotty and I were in Jr. High together. Me the nagging 6th grader with all the older kids. I want Jim, Sandy, and Kim to know how lucky I feel to have had Scotty in my life. I still think of him everyday. He was there for me when ever I needed someone. I know Scotty and my brother are looking out for me and my family. I also have reason to believe Scotty and Ryan are doing the same for their family and friends. I can't wait until the day I will be together with my two best friends again. To this day, I still consider my brother and Scotty my best friends and no one can ever replace them.
I LOVE YOU SCOTTY!
My prayers are with both families,
Erin

Comments: I was simply searching the web to find information on helping a child deal with death. My husband and I have just taken in my four year old cousin. The day after my wedding, about a year and 1/2 ago, my cousin's mother died. She was three at the time. I am just curious about how to help her deal with such a great loss, being that her father was never involved. Your website is extraordinary. I would like to send all my thoughts and prayers to Mazey and Zane. I am also curious to know how you keep their father's memory alive. God bless you!

Comments: I have enjoyed visiting this page. Please accept my sincere
sympathy for your loss. My heart goes out to you. I never
knew what grief was until we lost a child. While we know we
will join them in heaven one day, it seem little consolation
at this time in our lives. We have gotten so much comfort
from reading the memorials on the WEB and can't thank you
enough for the effort you have put into setting up the memorials.
God will surely bless this outreach ministry and you.
