Welcome back from a much needed vacation Rick!!

Sorry about your Cousin.

P.S. Monica didn't send the banners.

If you want it done right you need to do it yourself Frank. I will be on it first thing on Tue. My cousin was a great guy. he was only 52 way to young to die. This is the second cousin in the last three weeks to leave us. It gets you to thinking. We all need to live life to its fullest each day because you never know. The lord only gives us one day at a time.

Welcome back and my sincere condolences. I happen to be "52" so I can really relate to your post. Hope to chat some more with you tonight.

Welcome back

Glad your back Rick, sorry about your loss. The idea of making the best out of each day is right on as far as I'm concerned. If one always waits untill tomorrow, it may never come. Take care and God bless

Welcome back...Sorry to hear about the loss....I was at a funeral this past week, they really stink, my Dad's 1st cousin worked in the World Trade Center, he was only 40....

It makes this disaster worse and worse everytime, the funeral was so weird, when I walked in all I saw was a giant picture of him, but no casket.....Its very sad he left behind a wife with 2 and 3 year old daughters as well as a 10 year old son, he was his baseball coach...Though I did not know him, it was truely a loss

Prayers going out

Sorry about the loss. I posted several days ago, if we could know the horrable number of spouses and kids that are now without one parent or mate it would make us sick. For a young family like you mention is heart breaking. For a 2, a 3yr old and and a 10 yr old son, just heart breaking. Our prayers go out to all the surviving spouses and "one parent short" kids.
God bless all of the workers, and those lost on that horrid day.
