Re: Thoughts & Prayers
Yes, I got an email from Brian early this am and he and his family will need our thoughts and prayers as they have been struck by one unforseen tragedy involving an 18 year old man.<br /><br />I will post the email as he has ask me to inform his online family of this and seeing how he posted this topic I will post the email I got from him:<br /><br />Lester,<br />A terrible tragedy has struck here. Yesterday afternoon, my sister found that her son, my godchild, hung himself at their home. Sean was only 18 years old, good looking, outgoing, friendly, a senior in high school, defensive player on the school football team, accepted at a good college, a good student, with good solid friends. He never used drugs, never drank, never smoked. By all outward appearances, a young man with everything to live for. No note, no reason, nothing unusual, no indication that he was suicidal.<br /> <br />My sister and brother-in-law are totally devastated, physical and mental wrecks. We can't eat, can't sleep, and are often overtaken with fits of uncontrollable crying and sobbing. We are asking all our friends to remember our family in their thoughts and prayers. <br /><br />Unfortunately, I cannot bring myself to send this to anyone but you, and ask you to shoulder the task of informing my online family. Please forgive me for putting this burden on you, my online friend. It's a lot to ask of you, but know that it is deeply appreciated.<br /><br />I'm sure you'll understand if you don't see me online for a while.<br />Thank you for your friendship,<br />Brian & Karen<br /><br />If I get anymore info, I will pass it along if it is ok with Brian and his family.
