The memorial service is tonight.It is hard to imagine, if you haven't gone through this type of sorrow. So often with tragedy, I feel guilty if I don't try imagine what they are going through, and yet I don't want to imagine. One thing I know for sure, their family will never be the same, there will be a hole...and so there should be. Have a great day.T.

I have thought about this circumstance often as a mother, and as a mother who has a child who has undergone heart surgery, and I wonder if I would blame God at least briefly.<br /><br />This life and passing of a life makes me grateful.

I have no words either. "Sorry!" is usually all I can get out. Hugging and bringing casseroles by is easier for me to help them weather the storm until the pain slightly dullens, never ever completely goes away, but somehow they come to learn how to live with it, ever present and move on as God would have us do.<br /><br /><br />I will say a prayer for L.

My husband lost his brother a few years back, his mother said the same things, but what comforted her most was the people who showed up at the viewing just to be there for her---the ones who came and sat and just were.
