The grieving that comes with it is called a process and that it truely is. It is not natural for a child to preceed a parent in death. My deepest condolence. the Bible's promise has helped me to grieve. Jesus' tender feelings when resurrecting Lazarus reflected his intense desire to undo the ravages of death. In the spring of 31., C.E Jesus Christ bodly promised: "Just as the Father raises the dead up andmakes them alive, so th4 Son also makes those alive whom he wants to. Do not marvel at this, because the hours is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his (Jesus') voice and come out." (John 5:21,28,29) Here Jesus Christ promised that millions now dead will live again on this earth and have the prospect of remaining on it forever under peaceful, paradisaic conditions (Luke 23:43) This hope has given me much comfort May you find this comfort in God's Word. Releasing grief by talking is so helpful. Even writing helped me. Something else, it facilitates the release of grief, crying and I do this whenever I need to.Shedding tears is a necessary part of my healing process. Psalm 34:18 says God is near to those that are broken at heart; and those who are crushed in spirit he saves. May you have pace.

He was one of my best friends; there were things I could discuss with him that I couldn't with my daughter or husband. He truly lit up my life--now there is a huge dark hole that can never be filled. I still have a lot to be thankful for--his 3 year-old daughter, my daughter, her 7 month-old daughter, my husband, my son's wife, etc. But there will never be the joy that he emitted just walking into a room !!

At 7:30pm on April 30, 2009, Connie Tate said…: My daughters favorite color was purple, so I had her headstone made in Seattle, it is purple glass with her name, birth and death dates and the words OUR ANGEL etched on it. It is very beautiful, as was my Angie.

I know a part of me died with him. At times I do scream like a banchee in the night, throw things, kick things, shout obscenities at the sky--but nothing helps. How can anyone cope with this. I miss Aaron so much !!!!
