Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Lost my neighbor and whole family last evening.

I don't see a problem with all veihicles having a blow tube or key code , installed if you can't do it car don't go, if ya don't like it don't drive! Too much of this $hit going on 2, 3, 4 time offenders until something like this horrible thing happens. Whatever the cost on a car or truck it would be justified, what price do you put on a lost family ????

It'll be hard.


But, they'll be OK.

I lost mine when I had just turned 15. My two brothers were 11 and 9. Pretty much raised them myself for the next three years or so. But, we all dealt with it. What choice does one have?

One thing I remember most is after she was taken and gone, the first few months when I would see someone that resembled her from behind in public, I would walk around to see the woman's face, hoping that it would actually be her. The disappointment is heartbreaking every time that happened. Gladly, as time goes on, things like that occur less and less.

It's days like this, on Mother's Day, and her birthday that are hardest, even after that night in 1977. I still often reflect on how different my brothers and my lives would have been throughout all these years had our mother not been taken from us at such a young age... All the Christmases. Her not seeing or knowing any of her grandchildren. The list is long. But we get by OK.

Beyond sad.


The highway is one of the most dangerous places on Earth.

Prayer for those affected by the actions of the drunk driver.
And prayers for you Rockinbbar. You know what survivors go through, and the replay of tragedy, when you learn of it happening to others.

Three tries at reading this this OP for comprehension - still can not settle with this terrible loss, nor the selfish, brutal cause. The agony is most palpable and there are no worthy expressions. I am so sorry, and pray for your peace and well-being, and especially for those two young sons.
