Darksheare,
I am so sorry for your loss. A friend of mine lost his 17 year-old son on a two-lane highway; he was the designated driver and was going to pick up his sister at a party. A car in the other lane swerved into his and they hit head-on. Both drivers were killed.
He just wrote a book about his experience, “A Father’s Tears.” I want to buy it and read it—but I know I’ll be sobbing throughout it. Anthony McColl was a polite, friendly young man; it was standing room only at his funeral.
Whenever I see his parents, I can feel their sadness, even if they’re smiling. As you said later in the thread, there is a hole in the family that can never be filled.
God bless you. I’ll pray for you and your family.
It’s been twelve years.
It’s true, it doesn’t go away.
