*They found his body. Thank you for anyone who read this and prayed for him. Continue to send good thoughts and prayers to the Mootz family. It will be a tough recovery for the family as anyone could imagine.

That is terrible. The loss of a son or daughter is about the worst thing that can happen to you. So sorry to hear the news.

My wife lost a son just shortly after I met her. He was fifteen. Died of an aneurysm. I had a son the same age so I was really shocked at what she was going through. Tragic any way you look at it. Kid was excellent in every way. Crushing experience.

I'm sorry to hear that. Thank you for sharing. I have an 8 month old daughter. I can't imagine the pain caused by losing a child.

Hello Nevada FTE! Hope everyone can have a great weekend!

Sunnshhinecrime, I am sorry to hear about your friend. I will pray for his family and friends. Like you, I cannot even imagine the pain they are feeling. I remember reading one of those advice columnists many years ago (Dear Abby, if my memory serves me right) and a lady had written to her regarding someone losing their child, and how long to wait for the pain to go away. The lady writing in had lost a child several years earlier, and was still not over the pain, and she was upset that a remark was made regarding a 3rd lady who had lost a child relatively recently. This lady made the comment "I pray she never loses a child" to which Abby replied, "I pray she, nor anyone else, ever lose a child, as that is without a doubt the worst pain any parent will ever have." I saved that clip, but don't have it on me, it is in storage, and I know I did not get the response 100% accurate, but you get the idea.

Jim

QOTD

Question of the day:


What's in your wallet? (LOL! Makes me think of that commercial)

I can't even close my wallet - it's so fat with mainly business cards, a couple bank reciepts, pictures, ATM & health insurance cards, my licenses - regular drivers license, ambulance attendance license, EMT/CPR certification, registration card, & I even have a key to my neighbors house for when I watch their house & feed their animals when they go on vactation. No money...just a bunch of crap taking up space!

I have no money in my wallet (Don't carry cash) Just a debit card, Paypal credit card (secured, so it is like a debit card) Food stamp card, and unemployment debit card. Also have my Driver's license, VA ID card, SSN card, and medical cars. I also keep a piece of paper in my wallet with my brothers name and address, and my best friends name and address in case I am in an accident and unable to speak.
