Prayers Please...
Hi everyone. Last night my family and I suffered a terrible tradgedy. My Dad, Jim, passed away at the age of 50. He was a loving father, son, husband, and friend. He was a lifetime trucker, and while I was used to him being gone alot, there is no comfort to be found in this. He was in perfect health, his only ailment being he was a borderline diabetic. He suffered a massive heart attack and passed instantly depite efforts by my Mom and I performing CPR. He was my best friend, and my life will never be the same. I feel the worst for my brother, since Dad didn't get to see him get his drivers license or graduate high school, both of which he was there for me. All I ask isfor your deepest prayers for me and my family and friends as we work through this terrible tragedy.

OMG Casey. I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. What a shock for you and your family. You bet I'll say prayers.... I just wish I could say, or do something that would take away your pain, but I know that only time and patience will help with that. I could imagine that your Dad wouldn't want you to beat yourself up over it, but instead, celebrate his life. Hang in there my friend.
