1. What a beautiful smile Danny has!
I'm so very sorry for your loss. I can't even begin to imagine your heartache.

Someone sent me this poem when my mom died. I get great comfort from it. It's a Native American prayer.

I AM NOT THERE

DO NOT STAND AT MY GRAVE AND WEEP,
I AM NOT THERE, I DO NOT SLEEP

I AM A THOUSAND WINDS THAT BLOW,

I AM THE DIAMONDS GLINTS ON SNOW,

I AM THE SUNLIGHT ON RIPENED GRAIN,

I AM THE GENTLE AUTUMN RAIN.

WHEN YOU AWAKEN IN THE MORNINGS HUSH
I AM THE SWIFT UPLIFTING RUSH,
OF QUIET BIRDS IN CIRCLED FLIGHT.

I AM THE SOFT STARS THAT SHINE AT NIGHT.

DO NOT STAND AT MY GRAVE AND CRY,
I AM NOT THERE, I DID NOT DIE.

23. My thoughts and prayers are with you
Edited on Fri Nov-02-07 03:17 PM by KC2
I once knew a Danny Pugh, at Texas Wesleyan Univ.

Please tell me it's not the same young man...ok? :hug:

Edit: I changed my PM option, for just a little while, so you can send me a PM if you want to. :hug:

28. Thank you for writing back.
That was seeming like an unusual enough name. There was a Danny Pugh who was a student worker, when I worked at the library there many years ago.

Please send me a PM if you need to talk with someone, ok? Most people here know... my mother committed suicide. I do know a thing or two about it.

Many hugs for you and your family. Again, I am so sorry... :hug: :hug: :hug:
