Bass Drum Premium Jigsaw Puzzle

Mamag, the death of a child is probably the most heart-breaking experience a parent can have, but to witness it, especially a self-inflicted death, just rips you apart. You haven't found all of those pieces yet. My prayers that God touches both your hearts with healing and peace today and every day.

Praying for you and your beloved husband.

I am so deeply sorry for the loss of your son. My heart is with you, your husband and your beloved son. "Think of your child then, not as dead, but living. Not as a flower that has withered but one that is transplanted; and touched by a Divine hand is blooming in richer colors, sweeter shades than those of earth. ~ Richard Booker

Lovely, leia7. Thank you.

Mamag, I got on the site late (1am) and was so very sorry to hear of y'alls very sad day. You and your husband are in my prayers and I hope that you both endured the day with God's love. Bless you both. Love and hugs.

Thank you trynfindit. It was a tough day. Hubby and I did get a call from our oldest son and our daughter. The guys had a long nice talk. What was even better, our 7-year-old granddaughter does not like talking on the phone but she talked to grandpa for a few minutes. Our son was surprised. It was so sweet hearing her voice. I have a cross with Jake's ashes in it and I am wearing it for a few days. then I put it away until November when we celebrate his birthday.

We have an 11 year old grandson named Jake; he's very good on his drums.

I don't know if this will help y'all any but, when my mother passed away, we didn't want to refer to that date as 'the day she passed away' so our oldest granddaughter wanted to refer to it as the day her great-grandmother became an angel. So we now refer to that day as "Angel Day."

Thank you trynfindit. I think that will help. Jake now has an "Angel Day." I love it. That actually made me smile. God bless you my friend. :)

Hugs

My youngest son played electric, bass, and acoustic guitar. He was teaching himself electric drums and was getting good. My older son still plays guitar and is often playing in a group with his friends. I love listening to them.

Having raised 8 kids, I know how music is important in their lives. I've often told folks that music is what kept them "off the streets and outta trouble."

My son also went the guitar route.

My son is a signed musician who started playing guitar when he was 14. He taught himself how to play and is so very good at it. He's able to listen to a song once or twice and play it. He writes most of the music he plays.

My boys could/can play by ear. Jake was starting to write his own music. But he erased everything from his computer except for a few pictures that were saved. My oldest son still plays but now he has carpal tunnel in the right hand which makes it hard for him. I love hearing him play.

Hugs and blessings to you, aussie!
