<<< It's been ten years
 

Ten years ago tonight we lost our little grandson Lucas in a drowning accident. He was only three. I still miss that little fellow.Attachment 45862:sadangel:

Attachment 45864
This one was taken four days before he left us. I have that Buzz Lightyear in my display case.

Wow!! :sadangel:

Our condolences to you. I couldn't imagine. :sadangel:

:sadangel:

:sadangel:

:sadangel: Damn, I could not imagine something like that happening. :sadangel:

How awful. So very sorry. I imagine 1 year, 10 years, 100 years doesn't ever make it easier. Very sad. :sadangel:

First I've heard of this, so sad. My sincere condolences.

:sadangel:

:sadangel::sadangel:

Damn, that's unthinkable. So sorry... :sadangel:

:sadangel:

Thank you, sir.
I joined here a few months after the accident. I have mentioned it before a few times around this date and his birthday (May 4). Try not to go there too often. I have thought about changing my avatar pic every year but just can't bring myself to do it.

Oh man, so sad. That Buzz Lightyear is priceless.

May he rest in peace and be blessed by God.:sadangel:

What a horrible tragedy. I can't even begin to imagine.

:sadangel:

Keep it, I love that pic :seasix:

Keep the pic!

:sadangel: Absolutely devastating. I hope you can find some peace. :angel:

:sadangel:

:sadangel::sadangel:

I can’t imagine the pain of loosing a child or grandchild, so sorry that this happened. :sadangel:

:sadangel: I feel the same......in that I have 3 grandsons I very rarely see, one is 6 in Ca. the others are in Baltimore ages 1&4 :sadangel:

That is absolutely horrible. I couldn't imagine having to deal with that. :sadangel:

I understand though about the avatar. When my grandmother passed away at 96 I couldn't delete her phone number. Sometimes I'd call it and just let it ring. Finally my wife deleted it and initially I was mad, but before I could say anything to her I realized it was best. I couldn't do it and she had to, to allow me to move on. :sadangel:

:sadangel: I'm so sorry.....

:sadangel::sadangel::sadangel:

Wow, that hit me hard. Nobody should have to go through something so unthinkable. Hugs to you.

My Mom passed May, 2014. I still have a couple of videos of her on my phone. I also have her answering machine.
After my Grandmother passed in '95 we kept her phone turned in for almost a year. I would call it occasionally just to hear her voice.

I remember that night like it was yesterday. Still very saddened by your loss. :sadangel:

:sadangel:


:cry:

Oh man. I’m sorry. Prayer to your family. :sadangel:

We grieve deeply because we love deeply. I agree with keeping the avatar :yesnod: :angel:

I remember when I first saw your avatar and your record of what happened.
I was very touched and still to this day, when I see it I automatically think of
Lucas and whisper a 'Rest in Peace, little guy' to him.

That would be hard to take down. I think it's a great memorial for him and
it helps others to relate to the loss of young life and the consequent pain it
leaves in a family.

You're a good Granddad. :angel:

I have a small Buzz Lightyear that hangs from the mirror in my dd, along with a small teddy bear that my Mom had in her car.

Definitely keep it, it is a wonderful tribute. I have thought the same about my Facebook profile pic, my best friend that I lost 4 years ago, but his widow says keeping it is important to a lot of people
