Losing my older brother was hard enough, but witnessing and feeling the loss
felt by our Mom was even worse -- I can't imagine much worse could happen to
a parent.

16. Thank you all so very much for your thoughts and prayers.
We are loading up the car to drive back to Salt Lake City now. This time last month we were there for my oldest son's wedding and now going back for my youngest's funeral.

We are all in shock. He was walking home from a 7-11 grocery trip. The driver didn't see him in the crosswalk because it was dark and Geoff was wearing dark clothing, had his Ipod in his ears and it appears he crossed against the light.

He will be missed by many friends, family and a new girlfriend.

Losing a child has got to be the most difficult loss of all. It goes against nature.
