The author's words are heartfelt and as I listen to to the music I feel the
sadness and have empathy for your Goddaughter. Becky, and all of you. The author words once again, sadly, make me realize we all only have today. May God be with all of you at this difficult time. I like how the author ends each stanza.
Hi Debi, sending my condolences with thoughts n prayers, Love, Maria

Hi Maria, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness and your caring support for our sad loss of Aaron. The hardest is watching Becky and the kids have to go through so much right now. I hope she has half of the support system with others as I have with all of my wonderful friends here. Love you all and thank you so much.

You are very welcome, Debi, and I imagine it is very hard to see someone you love go through a difficult time.
Comment from Jim Wile
Oh, Debi. I'm so sorry for you and your family, especially your niece in this time of sorrow. How very unfortunate when a relative dies, especially one so young. This is a beautiful poem you've written for this sad occasion. It's an amazing skill you have for dealing with your grief. My thoughts are with you and your family. Jim

Oh Debi, I am so sorry to hear about this immeasurable loss for your niece and her family. If offering her this prayer/poem, you have given her a piece of your heart. So beautifully written.

Sorry to hear such tragic news, Debi. It is things like this that test our faith. I'll admit that I struggle at times like this. Those two videos help me cope.

Wow! When disaster strikes it seemed all at once, Debi. Aaron was a great father, a loving husband and a fantastic son to all of you. My prayers are definitely with you. Who knows why we suffer as we do, perhaps it will make us stronger? The picture was wonderful and the two videos were special in their own unique way. Blessings n Hugs n Prayers.

Comment from Dawn Munro
Debi, I am so sorry for your family's loss. I don't understand how these things happen, but I pray for you all.
Your poem is so sad but very, very beautiful! Yes, dear Lord, "...can't we please just go back another day..."

Dawn, your caring words and friendship meant more to me than you could possibly know. I feel like a warm caring teddy bear just hugged me, then sent six stars to shine over Becky as if to let her know that Aaron is ok.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Comment from WalkerMan
Dear Debi and Becky, please accept my condolences in this moment of unexpected loss and future without Aaron's loving presence in your lives and those of his children. Sadly, time will not reverse even a bit, but at least it seems he was not conscious upon impact, so did not suffer even briefly.
To the extent that you keep his memory in your own heart, he will remain with you and help you in times when you need his guidance.
Your poem expresses your feelings effectively as its stanzas roll through the consequences of this event for those most directly affected. The last line in each stanza ties them all together, though the plea itself cannot be granted.
I will pray for all of you, particularly for the children, that all do not carry the bitterness of loss but rather the solace of fond memories.
Willie Nelson singing "Remember Me" is perfect for the accompanying video, and "Amazing Grace" always fits such circumstances. -- Mike

You are most welcome, Debi. Yes, Aaron's soul is safely in God's hands.
Now here is a song I wrote over fifty years ago, when I might have been drafted into a war from which I may not have returned, so I would have words to leave my beloved young wife and children in remembrance. I'm not a musician, but managed to set it to music. Blessedly, God timed events in my life to keep me out of that conflict. During the decades since then, I have recited it to many in grief over unexpected loss, as what their caring loved one might have said in parting. You have my permission to show it to Becky as what Aaron might have said to her. The three videos there are relevant too. Here is the link:

You are again welcome, Debi. -- Mike
