Dear Mary,
I am so sorry for your loss. I have experienced suicide first hand and know the added pain that it brings. Even though we are all screen names and random pictures, Tom (Waterguy) told me before I met him that we are all friends, we just haven't met in person yet. Please know that all your friends here have you on our minds today and in the days to come. I too, will say a prayer for you to have strength in the coming days.

Mary---What a horrible loss--like others, I cannot imagine how you are feeling. I have a family member with depression and I've thought about something like this, though fortunately never experienced it. My thoughts are with you.

Mary, saying "I'm sorry' seems so inadequate, yet all of your friends on the forum are truly sorry for your loss and pain. For all of us, it makes any of our problems of today seem trivial. My prayers are with you, your family, and your young grandchild. Though your son, and your pain, will never be forgotten, I pray that, after alot of tears and a few tomorrows go by, your grand daughter rekindles the joy and smiles to your life. Be strong, she'll be needing you.

Mary-
There are no words that can be said to help you through this time but know that we are all so very sorry that you and your family are having to experience such loss.
Spend lots of time with your grandchild and keep on loving even though sometimes it hurts.

I know that simple words can in no way convey my deepest sympathy nor comfort you and your family during this time. My thoughts and prayers are with you, especially today.

Dear Mary,
I am sure that I am not the only one of your "forum family" that read your post and immediately got a lump in my throat & tears in my eyes.
My husband Jim & I want to tell you how very sorry we are for you and your family.
There truly are no words, at this time, that could bring you the comfort or understanding that you need. All you can do is hold close those precious memories with your son - hold close those smiles & joyful moments - and hold extra close your precious grand-daughter, who - no doubt - will be your strength.
Please know that you are in our hearts & prayers.
