Your family here grieves for you, brother. Praying for healing and lots of love sent your way. You will be the rock that gets her through this. Deepest condolences...

I can empathize with Megan. My mother died when the car driven by my dad was T-boned during a thunder storm. Sincerest condolences to Megan and her family.

Condolences to you, Megan and her family. I'm sure it will leave a big hole in their hearts for a long time to come.  You've given us something to think about and appreciate our family more this holiday season.

Dang man, that sucks :-(
Sometimes in situations like this, one of the best things you can do is be there. Physically present, but also emotionally available for her. Fight your urge to try to fix it, and just be there. And get flowers often.
Ok enough advice...thanks for the reminder of how precious life is.

Eric, I am SO SORRY to hear this. Such a hard time of the year, and so hard when things are not finished.

You are so right about priorities and making time. I admire your post, as it reminds us all to make each day count. Hang in there man. You are a man of character and it shows in a post like this. I know you will be strong for her. Hang tough man.

What a ball buster, Eric. 

 Cherish all that you have this holiday season. Love on your loved ones.  Love on your enemies. Love the distanced family member you have not spoken to in a while.

What you said are words from someone who has felt tragedy.  I hope you  and Megan heal together.

Love you, Eric.

Raydon
