Bad Thanksgiving News

Losing a loved one is tough, but when it happens on a holiday it makes it that much worse. Sorry for your loss.

Thanks everyone. Every little bit helps. My little Sister was amazed at how some "little truck site" could care at all about her loss.

Scott,

Tell your sister we are a little truck site but we are made up of a group good people with good values and we always come together to help any and all among us. Anyone one of has experienced something similar or can imagine it all too well. I think I can speak almost everyone on here, even those who have not yet had a chance to respond personally, that it is our honor to say a prayer and maybe a few kind words (best we can) for anyone on here or their loved ones when something so bad and so unnecessary happens to them.

Tell her we do care because she's one of us thru you. May the god on duty this month or the one of your choice, grant you and your family the peace to live with what happened; the energy to deal with the trials of the coming weeks; and the wisdom (or faith) to make sense of what has happened (if that's even possible) and to be able to live with it someday. Again our thoughts and prayers are with you, your sister, and your family. God bless.

Sorry if I got a little personal and preachy. Not my usual style. It just sort of wrote itself. I just wanted you and her to know our attention was not just in passing nor shallow platitudes. We all should, and mostly do, take care of one and other. We wish her and all of you all the best in the days to come.

Jim

Thanks Jim. You must know what a few kind words can do to help someone hurting. I sat my Sister down and let her read what you wrote. It was the first time I saw her smile in a week. Sorry I can't be more elegant with my words right now in thanking you. For some reason Im a little choked up right now. God bless you and yours.
