I don't know if anyone has had the chance to read Tone's last post. I just got finished reading it and literally sobbed out loud while I was reading.

As a parent of 2, I will be the first to admit that I too often take for granted how blessed I am to have my wonderful boys in my life. Not any more, I can tell you that!!

If your a parent, and you read that post, you have to be hurting for Tone and his family.

I think we should get together, and do something to really let him know that we are there for him and his family. I couldn't imagine going through that, and to be able to share that experience with all of us here, shows just how valuable our "family" is to him.

Not sure what we should do, but I think there should definitely be something..........Tone is "family" and if we can help him and his loved ones .......we should.

Any ideas or information (ie...adresses, arrangements, etc...)? Let's get on this and do something!!

Email me with ideas......LETS GO

i'm in.

Lets do this!

I thought about this too last night. I had a hard time falling asleep.

All we would need is his home address. Someone must have it.

I will volunteer to buy/ship a beautiful arrangement expressing all of our thoughts. Someone just get me his info.

Tom

We need the address here at Control central. If anybody has it, please send it to me.

Guys..........

I just stumbled onto this thread and wanna say thank you for the very kind thoughts. Jill and I had the funeral already.

It was very small consisting of my family. It was far to difficult to go through having a large funeral so we kept it very small. it was beautiful however.

Anyway, please dont go through any trouble with sending anything. My wife and I would really be happy if everyone could read my other post and seriously say a prayer for mason and perhaps do something special with your own children or children in your neighborhood.

That to us would be terrific and mean alot. Im so glad I posted my thread up. Great bunch of people with great hearts.

Jill and I read all the comments on the other thread and have been crying from all the genuine thoughts.

Thanks to everyone from Jill and myself.........

TONE

Tone,

I've been thinking about you and your family ever since I first read your post. I kept my youngest in bed with me all night last night.......

I have been reading all the posts on your thread, and was thinking that we should do something as a group to let you know we were here for you......I guess that's pretty obvious from all the prayers that the great people here have been sending your way.

Stay strong and if you need anything, anything at all, let me know.

Tone...

Your a very brave man to post your situation, it's very hard and you put yourself out there. It is moving, Im so very sorry for your loss and at the same time you have touched us all. You and your wife created a miracle and basically he was just to good for this place, he is now your miracle in heaven and will always be with you both.

As everyone has said here, if there is anything you need please feel free to ask..
