My heart breaks for you! I am so glad that you have God to help you through all of this tough years. I have experienced the loss of my father through cancer and then in 2005 I lost my baby brother and mother in a car accident together. But none of those losses can come near the pain of loosing a child. Keep up the faith. You are in my thoughts and prayers. |

My cousin, Kathy, along with her only child, David spent time in Nebraska with family celebrating her mothers' wonderful life. Sad, yes, but she did have a good life and blest so many. Kathy's son, David left Nebraska with his uncle, John, while Kathy stayed behind a few more days to spend time with sisters, her father. The next day (yesterday, Feb. 11th) she received a phone call that her son was found dead in his bed. David was only 20. He was just with my father, my brother, my cousins, his mother, his grandfather. . .and now he is gone. My cousin has lost her mother and her only child in the same week.. I am surfing the web trying to find something to say to console her. . .but there is no consoling, is there?

Name: Kevin Johnson Email: kshine423@yahoo.com From: Baltimore, MD Signed on: 1/19/2008 6:24:00 AM Entry: I had tears in my eyes as I read this heartbraking story of the loss of your dear son James. I know some time has passed since the accident. But as a survivor of losing a loved one, I know that time doesn't erase the pain or fill the void. Yet, keep those beautiful memories forever in your heart and talk about the good times as often as possible. Count each moment, not as one away from James, but one moment closer to being with him again. For the Bible calls death an "enemy", and God promises that he will bring it "to nothing".(1 Corinthians 15:26) This promise of God will do away with death and the pain it causes. It is my sincere hope and prayer that this will comfort your hearts. |

I was a close friend of James and sadly I lost touch with him. To find this out now so many years later sickens me. I feel a guilt that I'm not sure others would understand and it took me 10 days to actually read it. It is so beautiful. I cried horribly, but I also laughed. I remember all his stories about escaping death. I guess I thought he would outlive us all. He was such a caring person and I am absolutely positive he is still smiling down because his organs helped others. What a generous and wonderful thought. Talisha |

It is impossible for a mother to express in words all the emotions involved in carrying and birthing a child. We who share these special tears, know that there is absolutely no way to express what we feel when they die. I am grateful that the cries from our hurting souls are heard by a God that understands our hurt. You are in my thoughts and prayers as you painfully relive James'journey to Heaven. I pray that though the memory be so unbearable, the joy of knowing James is in Glory and awaits for you there continue to fill you with our Lord's blessed peace and hope. |

My only child, Janelle Ann Marie Durk age 15 was killed on July 6, 2006. The accident occured on July 5, 2006 at 11:28 pm on Interstae 70 in Clark County, Illinois. We were driving back to Michigan from a family reunion in Kansas. She was killed because of a intoxicated and fatigue driver who had fallen asleep about a mile up the road. We came to a safe stop when we were rearended by antoher semi. He hit the corner of our car, pushing us into a ditch. If it weren't for the driver doing that, we would have been pushed up under another semi that was stopped directly in front of us. Sometimes, I wish that he would have just hit us, rather then swerve. If he would have done this, I probably wouldn't be here emailing you and I wouldn't have to live with this everyday. We don't know why the driver that hit us was unable to stop, as he to died in the accident. I came upon your website, not sure how but I did. I want you to know how sorry I am. We too have created a website, Justiceforjanelle.com in trying to find a way to prevent other tragedies. I just want you to know how sorry I am and that my heart goes out to you and your family. May God keep you safe and forever in his care. God Bless. Sherry |

I am so glad that you shared your pain, doubts, and range of emotions that you experienced and experience. The loss of a child is one that I cannot imagine, and do not ever want to imagine. I don't think that we ever get over loss. We move on, eventually, though the night may seem like an eternity, but I think that loss indeniably and inevitably changes us forever. To say that it doesn't is to diminish the person's very existence. There will always be a void. |

I have been a Garland police officer for about 15 years. 8 of those were spent in automobile accident reconstruction. I have made several painful death notifications in the middle of the night to unsuspecting parents and relatives. I can remember every one. Thanks for sharing your story. Ironically, it seems a lot of people visiting your website have already experienced the loss of a loved-one, particularly a child. It seems that it's all the others that need to read your experience so that they will value the little things in parent-child relationships. Too much is taken for granted. God bless. |

It was Dec 9th, the day before my birthday. He was on his way to work and hit a patch of ice. He slid across the bridge and was hit by a tractor trailer. He was killed instantly. So much of what you write is how I am feeling. We just had his first birthday without him on Oct 11th. The 1st anniversary of his accident is coming soon and I am in a panic. Even though I know he is already gone, I feel like I only have a few weeks left. A few weeks before I relive that horrible nightmare from a year ago. I said a prayer for you today. You have been an encouragement to me. Thank You Mary |

I could hardly finish it due to the tears blurring my vision. I cant imagine the pain you went through and no doubt still go through. Death is apart of our lives but somehow it always feels unnatural when we experience it. I hope that you and your family will be able to help one another to cope with James' death with the help of God's word. John 5:28,29 promises that in the near future Jesus will call all of our dead loved ones out of the grave to life back to us. In the meantime our prayers are with you all. |

Name: Michael Akers Email: michaelakers@excite.com Web Page: http://www.zizzeradio.com From: Oceanside, CA Signed on: 8/31/2006 Entry: I'm writing again about a year and a half from the last time I posted here. I found this site one day while looking for family members on the Moody side. I'm not sure how I got to this site back then or what lead me here but it has been a blessing to be able to visit from time to time. Anyhow, I mentioned before, in my first post, that I had two friends that were taken in tragic accidents as your son was. I had said back then that in a way I knew how you felt but I know now that I realy had no idea the emptiness and chaos that was instantly stabbed into your life. I know now how cliche' my statement was. Losing a son is incompareable to someone losing friends that weren't flesh and blood. Since my last post I can unfortunately say that I now know your feeling of vast emptiness and uncontrolable sorrow. My family and I have experienced a loss that, I believe is compareable to yours. I lost my father last year prematurely. My dad died because of a doctor's irresponsibility. My father was given multiple prescriptions of morphine that were extremely powerful 10mlg time release pills. He was had never taken morphine before and was use to taking Hydrocodone for his unbearable arthritous in his shoulders. Why he was given morphine I'll never know. I have given morphine to friends that were dismembered in combat to help them basically slip peacefully into death. For the life of me I'll never understand why his doctor prescribed him medication of that caliber. Because dad was used to taking the hydrocodone, which isn't a time release pill, he took the morphine as if he was taking the hydrocodone and simply overdosed. Because the morphine was time release he took more than he was supposed to thinking the medication wasn't working. Hydrocodone hits in about 30 minutes the morphine takes about an hour or so. So he took more morphine pills because he thought it wasn't working as the hydrocodone did. I'm rambling. I just want to say that I am sorry for my niavety before and unfortunately now I truely know what emptiness feels like. Thank you for this site. It has realy helped me think and cope with the loss of my dad. |

Your story and mine sound so much alike, only my son died in an ATV accident (he was wearing a helmet) but the head injuries sound the same , my son was in a coma for 8 days and he was also declared brain dead. We also donated his organs which is our only source of comfort that he helped many people live a better quality of life.Thank you for your story of your wonderful son and know you have touched my heart.God Bless you and I hope to smile again someday as you have given me hope that the day may come . |

My ex-father-in-law (he always said I divorced his son - not him) and my son's mate's father. All I could remember is "Death is Nothing at All" and I found your website. I thought I was all cried out, but have taken great comfort in what I have read, grief is as individual and as common as life itself. I cry now for myself and for you and all others in pain, God bless you and thank you. |

He sounds like such a great guy. I also recently lost my daughter. She was 49 days old. She was born with 3 heart defects(that we knew nothing about) until she was born on July 8,2005. She went threw surgery and all but we believe that she had some type of infection. They continued to do all kind of cultures to see where the infection was but all cultures came back Negative. I am still waiting on the autopsy, they said it would take around a month. So I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am. Your story inspired me that maybe one day I will not cry all the time and I will be able to start living again and for this I say THANK YOU! |

The Lord commands us to lean on him because we cannot handle worldly things. People say that the Lord would never give you something you cannot handle, but it should be said, the Lord will never give you anything HE cannot handle. Continue to reach out for the Lord and remember the life your son lived, not the life he could have lived!! |

Name: crystal frye Email: clf495@ktis.net Web Page: http://none From: hermann, mo Signed on: 7/31/2005 Entry: I lost my father, 46 years old, in early april of this year due to injuries he suffered when a tractor trailer didn't see his car and made a left turn; they collided head on at 859 am. I was contacted by the hospital he had been flown to a little before 100 pm. By the time I had gathered items for my 5 month old son and made the hour and a half trip to the hospital, it was around 300 and no one would tell me anything. I held my infant son and prayed as I paced that little room. I said to myself "it's okay Dad If you're in pain you can let go Don't hold on just for me I have a man to take care of me now" and I kissed my son. Then I heard the words that had just come out of my mouth and wanted to take them back. Then I heard an announcement over the intercom.... something about a death and rest in peace. They announce when someone dies? I thought that was a strange new practice, but later learned they were announcing the Pope's death. Shortly thereafter, I went to meet the surgeons. The chaplain had informed me that after asking the first surgeon how he was doing, he had told her he was doing okay about an hour prior to this. So I thought it wasn't life threatening if he was " ok" I was shocked when the surgeon said he didn't make it. My father and not making it didn't belong in the same category. I had forgotten about telling Dad not to suffer, that I had my son to take care of me until about a month or so after the funeral. I felt burdened and guilty about that. I also was somewhat shamed that I didn't see his body at the hospital, and wanted a closed casket at the funeral. I was in denial and didn't want to have that image in my head. Months later, I was wishing I had. I want to thaank you for creating this site because it has helped me so much. I am crying, but not for myself, for your family. I wish words could ease the pain; both yours and mine. I was wondering if you took any legal action against the trucking company and if so what was the outcome? I don't want to be nosy, but I don't know if I am making the right decisions. I am a 26 year old single mother with very little moral support and could use some advice. God Bless, Crystal Frye |

Name: Julie Email: juliehomemail@netzero.com From: alpharetta, ga Signed on: 7/29/2005 Entry: I came across your website accidently today and couldn't help but feel compelled to read about your story and your son James. I too have a son (only 6) and a daughter and cannot imagine the pain you have gone through the past several years. I only want to say that I think what you have done to help others with this site is amazing. There have been countless teenagers in our area(and everywhere) dying in car accidents. I'm sure their parents are feeling everything that you have felt over the years. I feel now after reading your story God can use me to help if I ever meet them. I will send them to your site for inspiration. I will never again forget the birhtday or holiday of someone who has passed and not let someone know I am thinking about them on that special day. I think when you haven't been through this you are so afraid it will hurt the person's feelings and bring up unhappy memories but I can see now how important it is to le people know you remember. Thank you for that and God Bless you. I know you will someday see your Son James again. My heart goes out to you and your family for living through the worst thing to ever happend to a mother and father. |

I found out his music was stolen and is being sold today in records all over the country my mother and I are about to seek legal action to get my dad's royalties from music he composed and had copy written.

James was one of the nicest young men that I have ever met. He was a great friend to me during our 4 years at Lakeview, and even on a few occassions of seeing him after graduation he was just as nice and friendly as he was in school. I just registered on the Lakeview -Legacy Home Page, & I just read about his accident and I cried. I just could not believe what I was reading. I am very sorry for your loss. I wish I would have read about James when it happened, I would have gone to the funeral to give my sympathy. He was a great friend to all that knew him, and he is now an angel, and I know he is watching over you and your family. Once Again, I am very Sorry for the loss Amy Waugh Awau3@aol.com |

They were coming home from visiting relatives in Missori when they were stopped in traffic due to road construction they were they last car in line when a tractor trailor came from behind at 70mph and slammed them forward into 7 other cars. 2 were seriously injured they were the only two deaths.My heart aches so much for she was not just a sister but my best friend and how my father aches for she lived with him since my mother had died 10 years ago from breast cancer and july 15,2004 he buried his father and a month later buried his Daughter at age 34 and his sister-in-law age 64. We miss them so much,the only thing getting us through is knowing they are in Heaven for they both were Christians.And the good Lord above is getting us through each daynot to mention some of the beautiful gospel hymns that I listen too from the Gaithers. Thank You for the web site and may God truly bless you and your family,and use your website for reaching out to those of us with such tragic,accidents. You know it is so different when you know someone is dying like when my mom did because she was in such pain with her cancer and she battled it for 9 years so we had time to process and let her go because we got to say all the things we needed too for closer but when a loved on is taken so tragic we had no last goodbyes and this accident did not have to happened if the driver was paying attention he did not heed the construction signs whatsoeverand of course he too was uninjured. But I know I have to let God deal with Mr.Lester Jackson frome sunbury,ohio. It would be nice though for some sort of an apology, but I know it is early yet and am sure he is being advise to say nothing and someday when this is settled i will becalling him just to let him know who my sister was and My Aunt audrey. God BLESS YOU ALL...I LOVE YOU SIS AND MISS YOU MUCH. |

Thanks so much for sharing it with all of us. I lost my 21 year old grandson on December 21, 2003 and had lost a 5 year old grandson on June 25, 1997. We are living the nightmare once again. My daughter does not understand why she had to lose two of her four children and I have no answers for her. I just trust in God for my strength each day and she does, too. We will get past it and time does heal the hurt some. I can not wait to see my grandsons again. My Koby, who just died, was my first grandson and my Taylor was the last grandson. I have seven and I call them my Magnificent Seven. I just don't bother to explain that I only have five on earth since I feel them in my heart every day. God bless you and your family and thank you once again for helping me to heal by such a beautiful site. |

Name: Nedra M. Ellis Email: nedra_marie@Yahoo.com Signed on: 11/15/2003 Entry: You have my very deep and sincere sympathy in the homegoing of your precious son. I too lost my 43 year old son on July 16, 2001. My husband died when I was 29 years old leaving me with three small children to raise which I did very successfully. My son, the youngest of the three was an electrician by trade, married 13 years with two lovely children ages 10 and 6 years. He died peacefully in his sleep very unexpectedly. We miss him desperately because he was a good son, brother, husband and father. He neither drank or smoked and his wife was his childhood sweetheart. My one consolation with his death is that he accepted the Lord many years ago and was very dutiful to his church and devoted to his family. I am living my life so as to join him when God calls me home. I share your feelings because you will never stop loving your son and never will you forget such a horrible accident. My prayers are with you and your family. May the peace that only God can give be with you and your family. Very sincerely, Nedra Ellis |

Name: kristina Email: kristinaatsarashope@msn.com From: adelanto, ca Signed on: 7/11/2003 Entry: I came upon your website and was deeply touched. My 17 year old daughter was killed just 7 months ago on Dec. 5,2001. Sara was killed in a car accident due to the negligence of a father who allowed his unlicensed daughter to take the vehicle. He also had no insurance on his 2001 chevrolet blazer. The CHP states that they will not issue any citations to the father because they were on a private road. First of all, I don't think it matters where they were, it is against the law to allow unlicensed drivers to drive!! Second, I have found out through the county that this was a public road, owned by the county. I find it sick that the CHP is sending this kind of message to the public and to our children. It is dangerous for unlicensed drivers to drive and anbody permitting this should be held accountable for negligence. I will fight to the end to make sure that this type of negligence is not permitted. I wish you the best in life. I know our children our together now with "Our Lord In Heaven" and we will one day soon rejoice with them. My heart is broken forever with the loss of my daughter. She was my only daughter, my oldest child out of four. Sara was to graduate this year and would have been 18 on May 18th. It's a tadgedy that I would wish on no person. God Bless you and your family, Kristina Nolan |

Name: Carla Winn Email: sdcswinn@earthlink.net From: Muncie, IN Signed on: 7/8/2003 Entry: I learned of the poem when tomorrow starts without me when I opened my grandmas scrap book. She passed away on June 7th 2003. She lived in Tennessee and I in Indiana, so when the news hit that she was being taken to the hospital and the family needed to get there as soon as possible we had a long drive. Noone expected this to happen she was feeling fine. But her aorta had ruptured and she needed surgery. When we got there at 2am she had been in surgery since 10pm. At 4am they came out and said it did not look good they were having trouble repairing her aorta. My husband and I went to the chapel and prayed for her to make it out so I could tell her I loved her(I lived with her most of my life along with my sister and our cousin) I just wanted her to know I loved her and Kiss her. God came through for me. She came out of the surgery with very little hope. We had a lot of wittiness of God watching over us them few days. We learned a few days after her surgery that her brain stem was dead and there was no hope of her living without all the meds and breathing machine, so we all decided she would not want to live this way and we all gathered around her and let her go be with the lord. I was at my grandparents house on the forth of july and looking through the book and that poem just fell out. We just thought Grandma liked the poem, but after reading all about James I feel a connection with you. I am sorry for your loss. I to have lost a child when I was 19 and I know how hard this is. Please feel free to write to me. Carla |

Name: Pam Franklin Email: pamf@ckt.net From: Girard , KS Signed on: 6/2/2003 Entry: Please accept my deepest sympathies on the loss of your son. I have 3 sons, but realizeI can not truly empathize with you on your loss. As no two people suffer in the same way. But the loss must be ever so great. Whether this was 4 years ago or somedays probably seems like yesterday. What brought me to your sight was that I put in for a search on the essay "To Remember Me". I saved this clipping from 1995. And have kept it in a drawer. Saturday, my girlfriends daughter was killed in an accident. I retrieved my article and wanted to send it to her. Your sight came up. I have enjoyed "getting to know your son James". He appears to have been a wonderful son, possibly much like my boys. Please realize though I don't even know you. My heart goes out to you and your family. And be assured July 4th and July 9th, I will say a prayer for James, you and your family. It doesn't seem fair that after a tradegy peope do draw close, but then life goes on and other thing muddle their lives or possibly they feel they might sadden you by bringing up your son. Your posting are a wonder tribute to your son. Sincerely, Pam Franklin |
