Default One Hell Of A Day

I went through one of the hardest funerals of my life today. One of my son's best friends whom we have known since he was in pre school with my son had identical twin girls born to him and his wife October 26th and one of them died on October 30th. The funeral was today that little casket just broke my hart, I just cant get it out of my mind. If you are inclined to saying prayers please say one for her family.

You certainly had a rough day.

Our prayers are to the family and to you too. Funerals are always tough, they bring back many memories.

G'day Ron,
No Prayers, but heaps of sympathy mate.
Those little boxes are bastards, and stay with you for a long time.

I truly feel for the family and all involved.

I WAITED patiently for the Lord; And He inclined to me and heard my cry.
He brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the miry clay,
And He set my feet upon a rock making my footsteps firm.
He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God;
Many will see and fear
And will trust in the Lord.
Psalm 40:1-3

The loss of a child is THE most devastating thing a parent can go through. My prayers to the family.

My thoughts are with you, your family and your son's friends family. I can't think of anything worse than losing a child.

As someone who lost his son at three days old, I can definitely share my sympathies. The family is in my prayers!
