Default A Good Man!

He was a great friend, cousin, husband, and father. He made our family laugh and always had a smile. He would go to great lengths to offer help and say good things about all. Carp fishing in a sulfur creak made his day as a child. He loved to hunt, camp, and fish. It did not take much for him to have fun. I am sure that you all are thinking of someone whohas similar traits. Now imagine that man taking his life without notice. Just so many questions leaving behind a mess of broken hearts. He was the youngest of 3 sons. If this was not bad enough, the middle son took his life a few years back. 2 wives and 3 children to live their lives without their fathers and parents living their lives withtheir last and oldest son. I wish I knew what I could say, do, or pray for to ease their pain. I am just in shock. A wife with a 4 year old son and 5 year old daughter and financial strife. I do not havepermission to post their address in hopes that you could send your prayers,toys, clothes, etc.for the children, or monitary donations, yet I hope to ask tomorrow. I have never asked for help for myself nor anyone else so I am green when it comes to organizing something like this; your ideas are welcome. My son is almost 4 and I could not imagine having to share this news with him if I were in her shoes. No answers only questions. Sorry to share such a tragic story; some of us have been blessed and need to be reminded of it...

Ryan,
Sorry for your loss, and I hate to hear stories such as this. Life just doesn't give us answers sometimes to the questions we have for it, and this is certainly one of those times.

Unbelievable, I'm at a lost for words here. God bless both of the families. I see this suicide stuff more and more every year with people I know or know of, It's down right scary! No one usually see's It coming, It's just there all of a sudden and by then It's to late. It's a shame.

Reality check Is right.

There's really no explanation for tragedies such as this. My thoughts and prayers are with the families.
