EVERLAST boxing gloves(Blacked out with silver duct tape in And in This Corner, Luke Duke.)

Roger, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your daughter. I apologize for not seeing your post sooner. I haven't been checking the main page. I've also been distracted this past few weeks. I found out 2 friends passed away on July 6th and July 9th. This is not about me. Your daughter, you and your family are in my prayers. You post whatever you feel like saying. We are all family and are here for you. We are here for you if you need to talk. We love you cuz!

Weird that you should say that. Lately that has been the toughest part, forgetting she is gone and then getting smacked down when I realize she is. Last night we got a call and I looked at the display screen without my glasses and mistakenly thought I saw her name on it. I immediately was excited thinking I was going to talk to her and then it hit me that she couldn't be calling. I fell right to the floor crying. And then there are the times I see something and think to myself "I have to get a picture of that and send to her."

Don't feel bad about it. Not everything is perfect in Hazzard and they occasionally had to tackle tough stuff. So it is here as well. You do what you feel you need to do, whether it's talk or wrap this thread up. Believe me, everyone will understand.

Roger, I am so sorry to hear this. No parent should have to bury their child. My thoughts and prayers are with you. We're here for you if you need to talk, either in public or private. Sending virtual hugs.

Roger, I'm sure the feelings will come to you in waves. My friend who lost her mother recently suddenly got hit with the realization that she'd never see her mother again about a week ago. Another friend of mine lost her father around the same time. I bumped into her earlier for the first time in a couple of weeks, and she's still on an emotional roller-coaster going back and forth across the country sorting things out. If you want to wrap up this thread, that's for you to decide, but no one will complain if you want to keep posting. HNet is generally a happy place where we come to escape the troubles of the world, but it also has some nooks and crannies for topics like this.

We're here for you Cousin and you just remember, you pm me anytime you want and I will ALWAYS have time for you!

Sending hugs and prayers your way Roger. Please take care of yourself.

I'll be out of commission for a bit. Catch you folks in 2 or 3 days.

Thanks Hobie. Made all the arrangements today. Lots of emotional break downs behind me and many more ahead.

We don't mind at all! You talk about it as little or as much as you want! WE ARE HERE FOR YOU!

Thank you everybody. Just to clarify, I have 2 step daughters so have also written about them. But this was my only biological child. I never (or rarely) add the word "step" when talking about my step daughters so I'm sure it's a bit confusing. Today was my first full day without my baby. I will miss her always. It will be a long time until the days get better but it will happen. I probably won't talk about it a lot longer.....even though I'm sure you folks wouldn't mind...... .....This is a place I want to come to be happy and not sad and Dukes always makes me happy....except when one of the stars dies. And my family here always makes me happy too. Still, I might mention it one or 2 times here just for therapy. It's comforting to know we love each other so much here.

Roger, I'm so very sorry to hear this! Words escape me! Please feel the love, concern and care coming to you from all of us! WE ARE HERE FOR YOU! You have my number and if you want to call, I'm here for you. If I'm not here PLEASE....leave a message and I will call you back as soon as I get it! You have my heart!! I'm so sorry!

Roger, I am so sorry to hear about your daughter. My heart shatters for her, you, and your family as you are going through this. Sending hugs and prayers your way.

It's 3:20 AM as I type this. No sleep for me tonight. My only child was killed in a car accident just a few hours ago. This is truly the worst thing that has ever happened to me. She had just bought her first house and had only lived in it a week. She was only a few hundred feet from pulling in the driveway when a young man in a pick up truck came racing from the other direction passing 2 cars in a no passing zone and hit her head on. He wasnt hurt bad and got out of the truck before it exploded. She wasn't killed instantly but died before right after the ambulance arrived. My life has been turned upside down.

I'm so sorry to read this news, Roger. I've literally just read a message from a friend of mine who lost a close friend over night, and that's just three weeks after she buried her mother. I obviously never knew your daughter, but you've shared various stories about meeting her over the years, so I feel like I know a bit about her. You'll be in my thoughts.
