Very sorry to hear, Dave. No words, but prayers.

I haven't words, but the following poem has always appealed to me. May something bring some comfort.
"Death is nothing at all. I have only slipped away to the next room. I am I and you are you. Whatever we were to each other, That, we still are.
Call me by my old familiar name. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Put no difference into your tone. Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me. Pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without effect. Without the trace of a shadow on it.
Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same that it ever was. There is absolute unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
I am but waiting for you. For an interval. Somewhere. Very near. Just around the corner.
All is well.
Nothing is past; nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before only better, infinitely happier and forever we will all be one together with Christ." Henry Scott Holland Beautiful, thanks. Dave

You and the Family have my deepest sympathy, I'll be praying for your family.

To lose a child is a heartbreak I pray I will never have to deal with,
To lose 2 children...... I can't find the words to describe how that must hurt.
May they both be looking down on you and thinking of how strong their parents are.
RIP. Ken.

Dave and family . . . So very sorry for your loss. Parents are not supposed to have to bury their offspring. Our hearts ache for you and Chad's friends and extended family as well. PTL his soul's future was/is covered.

I've always been at a loss of words when someone looses a loved one, all I can offer is my feable prayers.

May God watch over him, you and your families. My heartfelt sympathies.
There's 2 dates they carve on your tombstone. Everyone knows what they mean. What's more important is time that is known as the little dash inbetween.
