Bill, I wish with all my heart that there was something I could say that might help in some very small way but of coarse there is not. I will pray for you and your family that the Lord will bring you through your grief a stronger person. I also have a Daughter nearly that age and after reading your post I called her just to remind her how much I love her. For a loving parent, to lose a child must be the worst pain imaginable. May God bless you and your family, Bill.

Mr Bill, you are our friend, and i too wish to join the other forum members in offering my heartfelt condolence to you and your family. As a military chaplian part of my duty is to comfort those who mourn, not that i am very good at it, but i try. Right now you must be in a place where you feel the pain of your loss and it seems overwhelming, but it is by grace that you will get through it. Untill i became a chaplain i never really understood the emotion of grief. Grief is a very powerfull emotion , because it is love not wanting to let go. My prayers are with you as well as your friends on the forum, let the love of God encompass you as you find peace and rest in his grace, if there is anything i may do for you and your family just let me know . Regards and much respect Padre Dan

Bill,

I know how you feel about the friends we have not yet met aspect of our forum community because my feelings are similar. The sharing of your grief with us brings us all together to help as best we can. I hope you can extract some comfort from our feeble attempts in this time when all seems inconsolable.

You definitely have my condolences, but please also accept my thanks. This sharing has provided me, at least, with a valuable reminder: Tomorrow is promised to no one, so, for anyone who loves anybody (parents, children, friends)--Love 'em while we've got 'em and while we're here; and don't keep it a secret.

Peace be with you.

Bill,
The Lord has blessed me and my wife with three sons. In addition, we now have eight grandchildren. It is beyond my imagination what it is like to lose a child. I know words can never express our heart felt sorrow for you and your family. Hopefully you can find solace in the fact that she is in a better place and one day you and she will be united once again.

Just received this picture and thought I would share - two daughters; Kathy is on the left. We have three daughters and two sons.

Bill,

You have my deepest sympathy, and you and your family will be in my prayers. Life can be cruel, in our way of thinking. We just don't know the "big plan" of things.

Bill:

My sympathy in your loss and pain.

Sincerest condolences doesn't really cut it - in a time such as yours, Rather, better said...

If prayers have wings - then, angels carry our prayers... And today? There is a choir of angels singing the prayers sent to your daughter...
