I think Jimmy would tell you not to look for answers in things we'll probably never know. Jimmy would point out the obvious. The kids, family, loving friends. When Jimmy came to Michigan for Shane's first surgery he didn't give great words of wisdom, was never a sappy guy. But he was there. He made us laugh when we wanted to cry. Teased the kids. Ate our food. Jimmy never asked, "I wonder why this happen to Shane?" To Jimmy it wasn't the importance of what we didn't know, but the reality of what we do know. Jimmy was a great husband, Dad, uncle, and a wonderful brother. Things we will always know. Beautiful things. Keep looking for the answers, we couldn't stop you if we wanted to. Just know we are will always be there for you and the kids. That's one answer to a question you'll never have to ask.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071135032060260965.post-27633289490490633072010-08-27T00:54:35.936-04:002010-08-27T00:54:35.936-04:00They're beautiful.

What an incredible morning. A beautiful, surreal photo.<br /><br />I once wrote a paper for a death and dying class and it just happened one of my daughter's friends was killed in a car accident that weekend. We were all devastated. But I remember writing that some people in the Jewish community believe that the soul goes back and forth the last month before death. They believe it knows and prepares for its eventual passing. In the case of the young boy that died in the car accident, I think this was true. Maybe your instincts about TBHITW are correct.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13178290697351352495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071135032060260965.post-80766906352306057712010-08-21T01:36:39.669-04:002010-08-21T01:36:39.669-04:00Those are stunningly beautiful photos.

I hadn't been on here for a while, and was shocked to see this so, as I was choking back tears, I had to go back and try to gather what had happened. I know no words will take away your pain, only time will ease that. I am glad you are expressing your pain and memories here, we are listening, and am honored to be a part of your blog family. I pray for strength and peace to come your way.
