Okay friends, has you know I have talked about a man named Bruce before. We work together, we always did samples together. Well need prayers today. His son found him dead today, we was getting snow behind his truck out of the way and well his heart could not take it. Yes he had hard problems and he knew that but done it anyway. He was only 51 years old. He was one of my best friends; he helped me when my dad died. Thanks for all the prayers and hugs. DeVon


This is a shirt I did for him he wanted me to do.................. now what??

DeVon, I am so sorry for your loss! I have lost 2 of my best friends, knew each of them for over 30 years, would have done anything in the world for each other. It's a terrible, devastating loss, especially so suddenly, and he so young. Big hugs for you, try to stay close to his family. As for the shirt, make some memorial out of it, a pillow, a wall hanging--he was obviously a real tiger of a friend, make a lasting memory. Much love and care, Marji

Devon, I was so saddened to learn of the personal tragedy that you are facing. These times are always hard to bear but far more so when not expected. There are many platitudes that could be stated but none will really help you at this raw time. Nonetheless, I shall be thinking of you over the coming days and weeks. We are all here for you, should you need to chat. Take care.

So sorry, DeVon! None of us ever know what each day holds in store. Find comfort in knowing he kept doing things he wanted to do, until the end. May the Lord bless you, and his family with a special peace in Bruce's passing.
Hugs, Angel

I remember you working on that shirt for him.
I am so sorry for your loss. It is never easy to lose a friend. This may be especially difficult for you as you may feel the loss of your father all over again. Prayers for you, his friends, family and especially for his son. May you all find the comfort and peace you will need.
In the coming weeks you may find the strength to make something out of his shirt for the family -- a pillow or part of a T-shirt quilt may help them (and you) heal.
Hugs

So sorry for the loss of your friend. We seem to value them more in our lives as we get older. I'm sure you have many funny and lovly memories of him to get yo through the next days. I'm guessing he's already got that shirt if he needs one!
