Jay you and your family are in our thoughts here too all the best
 
This absolutely sucks Jay. I am so sorry...I have been around death more then my fair share and the common denominator is that no matter what people say, it matters little. That the anger can be so great at times that it is impossible to understand why. I don't know if you were close to your brother in law, but I know that a death in the family can hit like a ton of bricks. You will question anything and everything for awhile and just so you know....that's ok. I have shaken my fists more then one time at God over situations like this and as hard as it is to believe, healing will eventually come around for you and your family. I can't tell you when, or how but I can assure you it will happen.

If you ever want to talk...drop me a line.

This hit home to me! Very nice choice of words! :sqbiggrin:
 
Jay, I could say I'm sorry and I am. But it just doesn't seem like enough. I wish I could find the right words to comfort you and your family in a time like this. And I wish I could share the pain with all of you to lessen your burden. Peace be with you and may God give you the strength to get through this.
 
Jay:

I am so sorry to hear of this tragic loss for your family.

I'm sitting here, just stunned and unable to put my feelings into coherent words, so I'll just simply say....The Ball family's prayers are with you and your family.

Let's pray for peace.

As many know my son has spent two tours in Iraq and it looks like a third is coming. So when I say that what has happened Jay is a parents and families worst nightmare, I cannot begin to tell you how this has affected me. Many times you grieve for the families and their loss but you tend to put it in the perspective that you really dont know the family.

But this, somehow this board has made us family members and this just really gets to me. Jay your family is in my prayers. As you gather as a family remember the good. Dont remember the tragedy of death, but the greatness of his life. We are all there for you anytime you need us.
 
I would like to send a heartfelt thank you to everyone for their support. I printed this thread and let Amie read it.

The amount of support that her family has been getting is overwhelming. It's that very support that really restores one's faith in humanity.
 
Sorry to hear of your loss J, been off the boards here for a while.

As we all carry on in our normal lives, this war rages on really touching only those who suffer the personal losses it seems.

Not since Vietnam have I had these horrible feelings for loss of life.
I pray for the same joyous feelings I remember when it's over in Iraq.

Be strong
 
I was out of town for the last week.

I am so sorry for your loss. I honestly don't know what else to say. You have my deepest condolences. My thoughts and prayers to your family.

Peace brother.
 
Just want to post again in this thread so everyone can read my signature. Thanks in advance!

Don,

Your son is in our thoughts and prayers. Tell him to keep his head down over there and to come back in one piece.
