As a sort of side note, a former pastor of mine spent some time as chaplin at the county hospital's trauma unit here in Dallas. He told us there was a poster up on the wall that said something to the effect of, "Give your son a motorcycle for his last birthday." Shawn was riding his mother's motorcycle. AS far as we know he had gone after some food for his mother and great grandmother since great-grand mother was not feeling good. Last evening we went by the place where the accident happened and we could see the skid marks and the impact marks on the concrete light pole. We also saw the food items that had been lost in the crash that had not been cleaned up, they were scattered along the road in the gutter. It is a tragedy for the family in that Shawn was the youngest son and had not yet married any one.

Here you go try this, I wrote it for you: Several years ago, with a daughter you both were blessed. And there were many times, that your patience she did test. But together you loved her, and showed her right from wrong, Knowing the whole time, to another man she would one day belong, It was through you, she learned the gentleness of a touch, That true love meant to give of one's self, without expecting much. That the love of ones family, were the things that matter most. And it is for these things, that I offer you this toast. Thank you for my wife, your daughter I hold so dear, I know without you both, she would not be the one beside me here. For she is made up of the quailities, she was taught from both of you, Every single part of her, are special little parts of you. If you had not tried so hard, to show her a good and decent life, She would not be here beside me, I would have chose another for my wife. So everyday I have her, I Thank God for both of you, And I promise to do my best for her, as my love for her is true. I hope that is something close to what you were looking for. Love Penny

Sending healing thoughts to your son-in-law. Big hugs to you Sue! My future DIL has been in the hospital with multiple blood clots in her lungs. The doctor believes it orginated in the leg and was caused from birth control pills. She is only 21. The doctors are amazed it passed through the heart with no incidence.
