Sunday Novemer 16 12:15 am we lost our son.
It has been 7 years- starting the eight year this weekend. Everytime November rolls around it just makes realize that I am that much further away from him and our memories. Time can be a horrible thing.
Close friends of ours are artists. They wanted to give us something that would last instead of flowers. Mike drew this in a few days. How priceless is this gift to us?
Gotta go
Gotta go

19 nice things to say:
Seven years. I am a numbers person myself. I think the number seven has significant meaning. I don't really know you but let me say that I think after seven years you have a more peaceful feeling. I know you miss him. That is a lovely portrait of him. Time can be our enemy or our friend.
Thinking of you today my friend. We never really know what people outside our close-knit circles are dealing with... One thing for sure is we are all facing some sort of battle.
Prayers going up for the memories to stay strong and for your heart to heal.
Love to you~Rebecca
Many thoughts and Prayers for you this day...
Praying for you. Jesus cares.
Blessings
You are in my thoughts and prayers. You have wonderful friends to give you this lovely gift. As Rebecca said we all are facing some sort of battle, your battle would be one of the hardest. My grandmother out lived 2of her sons and I remember seeing her cry at the funeral home and said it shouldn't be this way.
One of my sons friends died Nov. 1 we don't know why but he took his own life. He was 18 years old, it was hard for my son and the other friends.
Cindy -- holding you close in thought and prayer!
Blessings!

I'm wrapping loving arms around you right here, right now.
Anniversaries of this sad nature never leave our memories just as your son will never leave you either. I'm so very sorry for your loss seven years ago. Sending warm thoughts your way.
I cried all the way home from work today because of what is going on in my life. I opened my computer to your post. I can not think of one thing worse than out living a child. My heart is so heavy for you.
I am so very sorry for your loss.
there just not enough words.
