I called our hair-cuttin'-lady today to make appointments for the boys to get trimmed up tomorrow. I've been seeing the same lady for over 15 years now, she has a daughter a year younger than me and a son a few years younger.
Today when I called, I was told her son-in-law was killed Friday in a motorcycle accident. He and his wife have four kids and one on the way.
I'm shocked. I'm crying -- this hits way too close to home. My mom died when I was four, Aaron's father passed away before he was born. We both know what it's like to be in those kids' shoes, to be raised without one of the most influential people in your lives.
I don't ask this often, but if you pray or send out thoughts to people -- could you do that for them please? I cannot even comprehend what that family is going through, they need all the positive help they can get.

Oh, honey, I'm so sorry for all of you. This must be opening old wounds... Of course we'll pray and send out good thoughts. Does the family need anything?
How awful -- I can't even imagine. I'm sending good thoughts.
That poor family. Absolutely. Good thoughts going their way.
Tragic.
My husband's father passed away one month prior to his birth.
I'm sending hugs your way. and theirs...
Consider it done. Hugs.

Oh, Laura. That's so sad.
You know if I was the praying kind I would- I'll be thinking good thoughts for them.

So terribly tragic - I'll say a prayer too.
I'm so very sorry this happened...good thoughts on their way.
How awful! Death at any age is so hard but a young person with a family just seems so unfair. That and young kids too. I will definitely keep his family in my prayers. (((HUGS)))
You can count on some prayers from me. Take care.
That's so terrible! I will say a prayer for their family.
Praying over here too. That's awful.

I'm so sorry. What a tragic story. Sending healing thoughts.
I'm attending a funeral tomorrow for a girlfriend who passed from cancer.......she has 5 kids.
I've been crying with you.
I'm so, so sorry. My first husband died when the boys were 3 and 13 months, and I hate for anyone to have to know that kind of loss. They are in my thoughts.
That is tragic. I'll keep them in my thoughts.
Good vibes coming that way!
oh, those poor kids....I lost my momma at age 5 and it was HARD!
