Playing with the BullMy beautiful baby passed from this life on Jan. 27, 2008. He was 17 years old. He died from a tragic accident. He loved life so much! He had more energy than I could have ever dreamed about. He loved people and was always on the go. He really didn't care much for school except for the social activities involved!!! His passion was his rodeo bull fighting. He had just become a professional cowboy protector bull fighter on Dec. 5,2007. He loved being in the arena playing with those darn bulls! He was also an avid hunter, he loved going to the woods and hunting, he could spy a deer or an elk from hundereds of yards away. Bryan Roper I love and miss you more than my heart can say! I know that you are up in that arena in Heaven having one heck of a rodeo with all of your buddies. I love and miss you so much son!!! We lived in Co. when Bryan passed away and I have to tell you all that since 2004 we have lost 14 young people in our area to tragic accidents. At the cemetary where Bryan is layed to rest he is right by 3 of his dear friends that were killed in a car accident a little less than a year from when Bryan passed away. My friend lost both of her children in that accident. Now all 4 of our children are resting next to each other!

Good morning,
I hope that helped a little, it did me just know that Samantha will be able to watch your son, Made my day that was one of the things I promised her I would take was a rodeo and never did. I will go soon, I have done everything she wanted to do from parasailing to deep sea fishing, I am trying to finish up some of the things she did not do for her.
I am so glad you are making friend on this site there are a lot of wonderful people and we all know your pain, every body situtation is a little different the out come is the same.
Just keep faith, you don't have to be strong all the time you are aloud to get mad.
Your new friend Melissa
Tracy,
Your son sound like he was a wonderful person he is still a wonderful soul,, and yes he enjoying his rodeo, Samantha always wanted to go to one,, so I sure she has got a ring seat. she was a country girl among other things, she died at the age of 18, she slip in the bath tub and bump her head and drowned i brought her back and she saved two lives with her kidneys. it will be four years oct, and it seems like yesterday, I have not been able to go thru her clothes and a friend of mine that Samantha knew well is dieing of cancer, she was a sz 12 and now she is down to a 1 Samantha was 3 to a 0 she work out she wanted to be a cop, and she was a model, she was only 5' 4" but today I was able to go thru all her clothes I gave them to pat her modeling dresses,,Pat's doc said she could go on a cruz and she is going to sit at the cabin's table, she has 6 months to a year to live, it felt so right giving her those clothes I did not cry when I touch them I felt joy like Samantha said this is what I was waiting for. :) Sorry for rambling just thought I would share
The "warning" post I did was sent out to "everyone" in our Loss of a Child. These posts only show on email messages. They don't go on everyones page. Just so you don't wonder all day. Sometimes it is confusing on the website to "comment back" so I just usually click on the person's picture and go to their page to make a comment. When someone sends a "message to the whole group", no one can comment back on that. You have to look up the person who sent the message and then click on their page. There is a listing of everyone in our group on the main page (right side) you have to "view all" then put their name in the search square and their page will come up. Hope this helps....once you get the hang of it it works good.
Hugs to you and your family!
Susan
I need to see a picture to believe anything anymore. I hope it is someone who really cares,but you never know.

Tracey....the other day I posted a "to all members" message to beware of this person - Monica. I noticed her message on someone else's page. Every once in awhile people come into our wonderful website and prey on unsuspecting people for personal email information. Pretty sad that people would stoop so low but it happens. Always go with your gut feeling on a message and never give your personal info to anyone unless you have gotten to know them and trust their friendship.
I have been on this site for 14+ months and this is the 4th person trying to do this. We all kinda watch out for each other and give warnings.
Your young son Bryan looks so happy in his picture enjoying his cowboy life. We can all hope he is in heaven riding the angel bulls. So sorry for your loss and hope you find peace and friends on this great website.
Susan Donny's Mom
