Thoughts and Prayers

[Bad Luck Larry]

Zim...

Sorry to hear about your loss.

I know it's easier said than done, but I look at the passing of someone as a cause to celebrate a life lived and enjoyed to the fullest.
Try to look upon it, as such.

If there's anything death should signify, is that :

-Life is too short.
-That each of us touch so many lives in so many different ways...and some of the ways are so slight we don't even realize what kind of impact such subtle things do. (Like, a smile; a touch; a story; personal experience; a kind word.
It amazes me how such a simple thing as a kind word can touch someone so incredibly.)
- That 'doing unto others' is still the best policy....because the secret of life is all about what we can give to each other....like me writing this to you and yours.

Be strong. And remember, so long as you hold your dear one and remember them in your heart....they will live forever.

Health to you and yours.

Sincerely,
Bad Luck Larry

Zim,

My prayers and condolences go out to you and your family. Even when we don't understand the "why's," God's work goes forward. I will pray that he brings you understanding and peace. Best Regards...,

Drew,

The death of a parent is always a difficult situation. The passing of such a young parent makes the situation even worse. Please accept, and pass on to your wife, my sincere condolences. 8T

You and your wife have my thoughts and prayers.
I lost both my folks while they were still young. My mother was 61 and my dad was 70. It's one of the toughest trials we go through in life.
