Dave,
I only knew you through brief encounters at drop-off times at the day care and the social lives of our children. The picture I formed was of a man enjoying the start of this new phase of life of fatherhood. I am sorry that it got cut so short.
Cheri,
We don't ever consider the possibility of losing our husbands while our children are young. We're supposed to be grandmothers before we are widows. I wish you strength and endurance.
Jacob and Danielle,
Hopefully, some day this will make some sort of sense.
I am deeply sorry for the loss all of you are experiencing. I can not begin to imagine it's depth. You are in my thoughts.
